About
Changyong Feng is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on refining robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) techniques to improve patient outcomes, particularly in complex surgical scenarios. His major contributions involve comparing extraperitoneal (eRARP) and transperitoneal (tRARP) approaches, demonstrating that eRARP reduces symptomatic lymphocele formation (42 citations) and offers advantages for patients with prior abdominal or pelvic surgery (28 citations) or inguinal hernia repair with mesh (18 citations). Feng has also advanced surgical care for special populations, showing through propensity-matched analyses that RARP is safe and effective in patients over 70 (26 citations) and in the morbidly obese (21 citations). His work on 3D-printed models for simulated surgical procedures (5 citations) highlights an innovative approach to resident education and surgical training. With over 150 cumulative citations, Feng’s research has directly influenced clinical decision-making and surgical technique selection, helping urologists tailor RARP to individual patient histories and risk factors. His studies on oncological and functional outcomes have provided critical evidence for expanding robotic surgery access to older and higher-risk patients, while his educational innovations support the next generation of robotic surgeons.
