Abstract
Context

Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in our community. Its relationship with urological disease is well documented.

Objective

To present an updated review on the relationship between urological disease and tobacco consumption and the importance of involving urologists in smoking prevention.

Acquisition and synthesis of evidence

We conducted a review of current literature, primarily by searching PubMed and using as the main base the report on the consequences of smoking on health performed by the Surgeon General.

Conclusion

Urologists play an essential role in informing patients of the relationship between smoking and urological disease. It is the duty of every urologist to play a more active role in educating patients and promoting smoking cessation.
