摘要
Purpose: We provide an overview of the current landscape of conflicts of interest relevant to urology practitioners and researchers. Materials and Methods: We conducted an extensive literature review to gather data to define the current state of conflicts of interest in the urological community and beyond. Results: In this work we examine the history and emergence of conflicts of interest in the public forum. In addition, we elucidate and define the types of conflicts of interest that exist. We examine the effects of conflicts of interest on practice patterns and on peer reviewed literature. We outline the current conflict of interest policies that exist. Finally, we discuss future trends in the management of conflicts of interest that will be important in the urological community. Conclusions: Conflicts of interest in the field of urology are prevalent and are becoming increasingly important to manage.
