About
Dr. Issa Khayoun Issa is a surgical researcher whose work centers on the intersection of urologic oncology and colorectal physiology, with a particular focus on the functional outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP). His major contribution lies in systematically characterizing the anorectal consequences of this common procedure for localized prostate cancer, an area often overlooked in favor of urinary and sexual function. In his pivotal 2024 study, Dr. Issa meticulously evaluated anorectal function and symptoms—including fecal incontinence, rectal urgency, and defecatory disturbances—six months post-RALP, providing critical data that bridges the gap between urologic surgery and colorectal health. This work has already garnered attention, with 2 citations in its first year, signaling its growing relevance. By shining a light on these underreported complications, Dr. Issa’s research empowers surgeons to better counsel patients and refine postoperative care, ultimately improving quality of life for prostate cancer survivors. His findings represent a vital step toward a more holistic understanding of surgical outcomes.
