About
Paymohn Mahdavi is a pioneering urological surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly in the realm of scarless surgery and laparoscopic innovation. His most notable contribution is the development of the SCARLESS MICROPORT AUGMENTED RESTORATION OF TRIANGULATION (SMART) Surgery, a novel surgical paradigm introduced in 2010. This technique represents a significant leap forward in reducing surgical trauma and improving cosmetic outcomes by eliminating visible scars while restoring the critical triangulation needed for precise instrument control. Though his landmark paper has garnered 2 citations, its conceptual impact lies in challenging traditional laparoscopic approaches and opening new avenues for single-port and natural orifice surgery. Mahdavi’s work, conducted alongside collaborators like D. Duane Baldwin, underscores a commitment to redefining surgical standards through creative engineering and patient-centered design. For students and researchers, his contributions exemplify how bold, paradigm-shifting ideas—even with modest early citation counts—can inspire future generations to rethink the boundaries of what is possible in surgical care.
