About

Dr. Soroush Rais-Bahrami is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for prostate and kidney cancers. He is internationally recognized for his leadership in laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) surgery and single-port robotic surgery, having co-authored the landmark multi-institutional analysis of 1,076 LESS urologic cases (277 citations), which established safety and efficacy benchmarks for the field. His contributions have defined the evolution from multi-port to single-port robotic platforms, as demonstrated in his comparative studies on radical prostatectomy and partial nephrectomy, showing reduced analgesic requirements and improved perioperative outcomes. Dr. Rais-Bahrami’s research also extends to neuroanatomical preservation, including innovative work using optical coherence tomography and nerve stimulation to identify cavernous nerves critical for erectile function during prostate surgery. With over a decade of high-impact publications, his work has shaped modern urologic oncology, directly influencing surgical standards and patient recovery. He continues to drive innovation in robotic surgery and telesurgery, making him a leading voice in the future of minimally invasive urology.
