About

Iqra Nadeem is a pediatric surgeon whose research focuses on congenital urological anomalies in children, particularly urachal remnants and ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). Her work provides critical insights into surgical decision-making for rare pediatric conditions. In her study on urachal anomalies, she analyzed a retrospective cohort to challenge the routine practice of prophylactic excision, demonstrating that infected presentations—not malignancy risk—are the primary driver for surgery in children, thereby informing more conservative management strategies. Her multi-institutional comparative study of open versus robot-assisted approaches for UPJO in infants under 12 months offers valuable evidence on the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive techniques in very young patients. Though early in her career, with each paper garnering initial citations, Nadeem’s contributions are already shaping clinical protocols in pediatric urology. Her work underscores a commitment to evidence-based, age-specific surgical care, and her collaborative, multi-institutional approach positions her as an emerging authority in the field.
