About
Dr. Tilman Klein is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex renal and pelvic conditions. His primary research areas include robotic surgery, percutaneous nephrolithotomy, and the management of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) with concurrent kidney stone disease. Dr. Klein’s most notable contribution is the development of a novel combined approach—robotic pyeloplasty with simultaneous percutaneous endoscopic stone removal—for treating UPJO and calyx stones in a single procedure. This technique, published in 2021, has garnered 12 citations and represents a significant step forward in reducing the need for staged surgeries, improving patient outcomes, and shortening recovery times. Additionally, Dr. Klein has contributed to the urologic literature with a rare case report on paraganglioma of the seminal vesicle, a norepinephrine-secreting tumor, which has been cited 6 times and highlights his expertise in diagnosing and managing unusual genitourinary pathologies. Through these works, Dr. Klein demonstrates a commitment to innovation in surgical urology, blending technical precision with patient-centered care.
