About
Walaa Borhan is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving surgical outcomes in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, particularly through innovations in vesicourethral anastomosis (VUA) technique. Her most cited study, a prospective observational cohort of 322 patients, compared long-term urinary functional outcomes using bidirectional poliglecaprone (Monocryl®) versus barbed polyglyconate suture (V-Loc™ 180). This work directly addresses a critical challenge in prostate cancer surgery—preserving urinary continence postoperatively—by evaluating how suture material and technique influence recovery. Borhan’s research contributes to evidence-based refinements in robotic urologic surgery, aiming to reduce complications and enhance patient quality of life. While her citation count is still building, her work is positioned within the broader effort to standardize and optimize robotic procedures. Her focus on functional outcomes underscores a patient-centered approach, making her a rising voice in urologic oncology. For students and researchers, Borhan’s work exemplifies how surgical technique studies can translate into meaningful clinical improvements, highlighting the importance of rigorous comparative research in minimally invasive surgery.
