About

Dr. Cheuk-man Li is a pioneering urological surgeon whose work has significantly advanced the field of robotic surgery in Hong Kong. His primary research focuses on the clinical outcomes and technical refinement of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP), particularly within public healthcare systems. Dr. Li’s most notable contribution is a comprehensive review of 235 RALP cases, which provided critical data on operative success, complication rates, and functional recovery in a real-world, non-specialist setting. This study, cited 22 times, established benchmarks for robotic prostate surgery in Asia and demonstrated its feasibility and safety outside high-volume Western centers. By systematically analyzing patient outcomes with at least one year of follow-up, Dr. Li offered invaluable insights into the learning curve and quality control necessary for adopting robotic technology. His work has directly influenced surgical protocols and training programs, helping to standardize care and improve patient quality of life. Dr. Li’s dedication to evidence-based practice and outcome reporting has made him a key figure in the regional adoption of robotic urology, bridging the gap between technological innovation and accessible public health.
