Item 5.  Other Events

On October 14, 1998, the Registrant issued a press release announcing its 
move to the Nasdaq SmallCap Market.

On October 15, 1998, the Registrant's common stock moved from the Nasdaq
National Market to the Nasdaq SmallCap Market via an exception from the Net
Tangible Assets requirement of the maintenance criteria for continued listing
on the Nasdaq National Market.  While the Registrant failed to meet the Net
Tangible Assets test as of October 14, 1998, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications
Panel (the "Panel") granted the Registrant a temporary exception from this
standard, subject to the Registrant meeting certain conditions, including the
completion of its self tender offer for $34.9 million in aggregate principal
amount of its 6% Convertible Subordinated Notes due October 15, 2003 
(the "Offer").   

The Panel also required the Registrant to file publicy with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a pro forma balance sheet evidencing adequate net tangible 
assets.  Accordingly, the Registrant is filing herewith its unaudited pro forma 
condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 1998 and the notes thereto, 
reflecting the closing of the Offer.




<PAGE>

          UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET

The historical balance sheet at September 30, 1998 is derived from the 
Company's unaudited financial statements.  In management's opinion, the 
Company's unaudited financial statements at and for the nine months ended 
September 30, 1998 include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring 
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial 
position at September 30, 1998.

The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet at September 30, 1998 is 
presented on (i) a historical basis, and (ii) as if the Company had completed
the purchase of $34.9 million aggregate principal amount of its Notes under the 
terms of the Tender Offer that expired on October 21, 1998.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and upon certain
assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments necessary to fairly present the pro forma unaudited
condensed balance sheet have been made.  The unaudited pro forma condensed
balance sheet is provided for informational purposes only and does not purport
to be indicative of the financial results that would have been reported had 
such events actually occurred on the dates specified.

     accrued interest paid on the Notes and $0.4 million of transaction fees

               UroMed Corporation Moves to Nasdaq SmallCap Market


         UroMed Corporation's common stock has moved from the Nasdaq National
Market to the Nasdaq SmallCap Market via an exception from the Net Tangible 
Assets requirement of the Nasdaq Stock Market listing requirements.
         While the Company failed to meet this requirement as of October 14, 
1998, the Company has been granted a temporary exception from this standard
subject to the Company meeting certain conditions.  In the event the Company is
deemed to have met the terms of the exception, it shall continue to be listed
on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market.  The Company believes that it can meet these
conditions; however, there can be no assurance that it will do so.  If at some
future date the Company's securities should cease to be listed on the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market, they may continue to be listed in the OTC-Bulletin Board.  For
the duration of the exception, the Company's Nasdaq symbol will be URMDC. 
         UroMed, founded in October 1990, is dedicated to establishing itself 
as a leader in the development of male and female healthcare products.  UroMed 
has developed or acquired technology in three core areas: prostate cancer, 
urinary incontinence, and breast cancer.  UroMed's direct hospital-based 
business lines include its CaverMap(TM) Surgical Aid, intended to aid  
physicians in preserving vital nerves during prostate cancer surgery, its 
Iodine 123 prostate cancer brachytherapy seeds (not yet commercially available),
its brachytherapy introducer needles, and its AlloSling and BEACON Technology 
System(TM), minimally invasive incontinence surgical line.  UroMed's 
office-based continuum of continence care product lines include the Reliance
Insert(R), the 
INTROL(R) Bladder Neck Support Prosthesis, and the Impress (TM)Softpatch.  In
breast cancer screening, UroMed, through its Assurance Medical group, is 
developing its investigational BreastExam(TM), BreastCheck(TM) and Breast View
(TM) electronic palpation technology in order to aid physicians and patients in
the important mission of finding suspicious breast lumps earlier.   UroMed also 
continues to dedicate resources to the development and/or acquisition of 
product lines that fit into UroMed's strategic platform.
