About
Dr. Abdulmalik Addar is a urologic surgeon whose research centers on advancing surgical techniques for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and kidney cancer, with a particular focus on optimizing patient outcomes through comparative effectiveness studies. His most impactful work includes a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) and Robotic-Assisted Simple Prostatectomy (RASP) for BPH management, which has garnered 13 citations. This study provides critical evidence for surgeons selecting between these minimally invasive approaches. Dr. Addar has also made significant contributions to understanding kidney cancer epidemiology in Saudi Arabia, with a 25-year retrospective study (13 citations) that documents rising incidence rates and risk factors specific to the region. His work on partial nephrectomy techniques (7 citations) further demonstrates his commitment to nephron-sparing surgery, comparing different surgical modalities for T1 renal masses. By combining rigorous systematic review methodology with regional epidemiological analysis, Dr. Addar’s research bridges global surgical evidence with local clinical practice, offering valuable guidance for urologists managing BPH and kidney cancer in the Middle East and beyond.
