About
Dr. Andrew Wagner is a urologic surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for complex reconstructive procedures, particularly in the context of post-cancer care. His key research areas include robotic-assisted urologic surgery, the management of anastomotic strictures following radical cystectomy, and optimizing surgical outcomes for bladder cancer patients. Dr. Wagner’s major contribution is his pioneering demonstration of the feasibility and effectiveness of robot-assisted ureteroileal reimplantation for post-cystectomy anastomotic strictures, a challenging complication that occurs in 4% to 9% of cases. His 2016 case study on this technique, though early in its citation history, provides a critical proof-of-concept for a less invasive alternative to traditional open repair, potentially reducing patient morbidity. This work underscores his commitment to pushing the boundaries of robotic surgery in urology, offering new hope for patients facing complex post-operative complications. Dr. Wagner’s research continues to shape the evolution of reconstructive urology, making him a notable figure in the field.
