About

Carrie Stewart is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally-invasive surgical techniques for complex pelvic and urinary tract conditions. Her primary research areas include robotic-assisted pelvic reconstructive surgery and endourologic management of upper tract obstruction. Stewart’s most-cited paper, “Technology Based Treatment for UreteroPelvic Junction Obstruction” (2016, 6 citations), provides a comprehensive review of the paradigm shift from open pyeloplasty to minimally-invasive alternatives—including endourologic, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches—for treating ureteropelvic junction obstruction. This work helped consolidate evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of these modern techniques. In a notable 2020 study (3 citations), Stewart examined outcomes of prophylactic mid-urethral sling placement during robotic sacrocolpopexy, contributing valuable data on preventing postoperative stress urinary incontinence. While her citation counts reflect a developing career, Stewart’s contributions are significant for their practical impact on surgical decision-making. Her research bridges the gap between technological innovation and clinical application, offering clear guidance for surgeons adopting robotic and endoscopic methods. Stewart’s work continues to shape best practices in functional urology and reconstructive surgery.
