The first one is represented by an online dedicated platform, where pre-recorded videos of lessons or surgical procedures are uploaded; these files could be available on-demand for the residents. Finally, notwithstanding the well-established usefulness of surgical simulation training programmes [6] , in this particular historic moment, where the Authorities have limited unnecessary transfers, the access to simulation platforms usually located in hospitals or universities is difficult. Now, during this extraordinary emergency in which it is very difficult to predict the duration of disruption, the current necessity should hopefully be translated into a future opportunity, in which smart-learning can become a useful tool integrated routinely into residency training programmes and urology daily life.	./cache/cord-345979-f0e6a0s4.txt	./txt/cord-345979-f0e6a0s4.txt
