About
Connor M. Forbes is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving risk stratification and surgical outcomes in genitourinary oncology, with a particular focus on bladder cancer. His most-cited study, "Predicting complications following radical cystectomy with the ACS NSQIP universal surgical risk calculator" (2019), critically evaluated the utility of a widely used predictive tool in one of the most complex urologic procedures. By demonstrating its limitations in this high-risk population, Forbes highlighted the pressing need for procedure-specific risk models to better guide preoperative counseling and clinical decision-making. This work has been cited 19 times, reflecting its relevance to ongoing efforts in surgical quality improvement. Beyond this landmark paper, Forbes has contributed to a body of literature examining perioperative outcomes, patient selection, and the integration of evidence-based risk assessment into urologic practice. His research bridges the gap between large-scale surgical databases and individualized patient care, offering practical insights for surgeons and trainees alike.
