About
Antoine E. Khoury is a leading figure in pediatric urology, renowned for his pioneering work in minimally invasive surgical techniques and the management of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in children. His research has fundamentally shaped how urologists approach congenital urinary tract conditions, with a particular focus on optimizing surgical outcomes and reducing invasiveness for young patients. Khoury’s most cited study, a comparative analysis of subureteral polydimethylsiloxane injection versus extravesical reimplantation for primary low-grade VUR, has garnered 37 citations and remains a cornerstone in the field, providing critical evidence for treatment decision-making. Beyond this, his exploration of laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgery—documented in his 2012 review—has helped establish these technologies as viable, effective options in pediatric urology, gradually shifting practice paradigms. With a career marked by high-impact contributions, Khoury’s work has not only advanced clinical care but also inspired a generation of surgeons to embrace innovation. His legacy lies in bridging traditional surgical excellence with modern, patient-centered approaches, making him a transformative influence in pediatric urological research and practice.
