Edwin 'Ted' Paterson Arnold, a former USANZ President, passed away at his Christchurch home on 25 July, aged 89.

The International Continence Society (ICS) has paid tribute to Ted, remembering him as a highly respected urologist and academic. He established Australasia’s first urodynamic clinic and made significant contributions to functional urology, urodynamics and neurogenic bladder care. His achievements were recognised through numerous honours, including the BAUS St Paul’s Medal, the USANZ Award, the ICS Hall of Fame and the Low-Arnold Award.

Ted was also a devoted family man and keen adventurer who trekked to Everest Base Camp three times. He will be warmly remembered by his family, friends and colleagues.
