The CAMUS Delphi Study: A Consensus on Reporting of Complications After Urological Surgeries is a multi-staged, international Delphi study that aims to establish criteria for standardised complication reporting in Urology. The initial survey consists of a 12-part questionnaire that will aim to reach consensus on a wide range of contentious issues in Urological surgery using the frameworks of both the established Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) and the new CAMUS Classification.~To ensure comprehensive and comparable complication reporting across centres worldwide, a conclusive uniform language for reporting complications must be created and subsequently integrated. Accurate reporting will allow for more precise allocation of resources, improve unit efficiency, and reduce healthcare burden, while providing clinicians with a better understanding of intra- and post-operative morbidity. If a comprehensive, homogenous reporting construct is integrated worldwide, the potential to build and develop a universal database with complications from all centres around the world will surely provide invaluable data to create new guidelines and recommendations, ultimately improving patient counselling and surgical quality of care.
