About

Dr. Hannah Kay is a rising leader in urologic surgery, with a focused research interest in optimizing surgical outcomes for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Her work critically examines the comparative effectiveness of traditional and modern surgical techniques for men with enlarged prostates. In her highly regarded 2022 study, "Comparison of Cost and Perioperative Outcomes Among Patients Undergoing Simple Prostatectomy and Laser Enucleation of the Prostate," Dr. Kay provides essential data to guide clinical decision-making. This work, which has already garnered 3 citations, directly addresses a key dilemma for surgeons: balancing the cost and recovery profiles of simple prostatectomy (SP) against the minimally invasive benefits of laser enucleation (LEP). By highlighting that the choice often hinges on surgeon preference and equipment availability, Dr. Kay’s research empowers clinicians with evidence to tailor treatments to individual patient needs. Her contributions are paving the way for more personalized, cost-effective care in urology, making her a vital voice in the evolution of BPH management.
