About

Adam B. Weiner is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing the surgical management of prostate cancer, with a particular focus on comparing surgical approaches and improving outcomes for complex cases. His most cited study, a population-based analysis of over 87,000 patients, identified key predictors of open conversion during minimally invasive radical prostatectomy, providing crucial data for surgical planning and patient counseling. Dr. Weiner has also made significant contributions to understanding surgical effectiveness in specific populations, notably through his comparative study of robotic versus open prostatectomy at a Veterans Affairs hospital—a critical analysis for a high-risk patient group. More recently, he has been at the forefront of precision oncology, leading a prospective trial on PSMA radioguided salvage lymphadenectomy for prostate cancer recurrence, demonstrating the feasibility of this targeted approach. Additionally, his work on creating patient-specific 3D-VR anatomical models using open-source software highlights his commitment to accessible, innovative surgical planning tools. With over 30 citations across his key publications, Dr. Weiner’s research is shaping both the technical execution and personalized strategy of modern prostate cancer surgery.
