About

Dr. Guy Hidas is a leading figure in paediatric urology, with a focused expertise in the minimally invasive surgical management of urologic conditions in children. His major contribution lies in advancing the adoption and refinement of laparoscopic and robotic-assisted techniques within this delicate patient population. In his seminal 2012 review, "The evolving role of laparoscopic surgery in paediatric urology," Dr. Hidas systematically catalogued the expanding applications of these approaches, from nephrectomy to pyeloplasty, demonstrating their safety and efficacy. This work, which has garnered over 40 citations, helped shift the paradigm away from traditional open surgery, establishing a new standard of care. By synthesizing the evidence and highlighting the unique benefits—including reduced pain, shorter hospital stays, and improved cosmetic outcomes—Dr. Hidas has directly influenced surgical training and clinical practice worldwide. His ongoing research continues to push the boundaries of what is possible, ensuring that young patients benefit from the least invasive, most effective treatments available.
