About
Chan Ho Lee is a dedicated urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving outcomes for prostate cancer patients, particularly through the refinement of radical prostatectomy techniques. His research focuses on the comparative effectiveness of surgical approaches, notably laparoscopic (LRP) versus robot-assisted (RARP) procedures, and the long-term complications that affect patients’ quality of life. In a landmark 2016 study, Lee conducted a propensity score-matched comparison of functional outcomes between LRP and RARP in a cohort of 712 patients, providing critical evidence on recovery of continence and other key metrics. His most cited work, a 2018 investigation into the cumulative incidence and risk factors of postoperative inguinal hernia following radical prostatectomy (19 citations), has become a reference point for understanding this common complication. By systematically analyzing large patient datasets, Lee has helped surgeons better counsel patients on surgical risks and recovery expectations. His contributions are essential reading for urologists and researchers seeking to optimize surgical care for prostate cancer, balancing oncologic control with functional preservation.
