About
Gaybrielle James is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving functional outcomes after robot-assisted surgery for prostate and bladder cancer. Her primary research areas include post-prostatectomy incontinence, urinary diversion, and venous thromboembolism prevention. James is best known for developing and validating a 24-month incontinence nomogram after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP)—a landmark study of 680 men that provides clinicians with a practical tool to predict long-term continence recovery (36 citations). She has also pioneered surgical techniques to preserve continence, including extended prostatic urethral preservation and a novel approach sparing the endopelvic fascia, puboprostatic ligaments, and dorsal venous complex with hydrodissection of neurovascular bundles. Beyond prostate cancer, James has compared renal function outcomes between ileal conduit and neobladder urinary diversions, and validated the Khorana Score for predicting venous thromboembolism after robot-assisted cystectomy. Her work directly addresses the quality-of-life concerns most feared by patients, translating complex surgical data into actionable nomograms and refined techniques that help surgeons preserve continence and reduce complications.
