About

J. Janusonis is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive reconstructive techniques, particularly in robotic and laparoscopic surgery for complex urinary tract pathologies. His major contributions lie in refining intracorporeal robotic procedures for ureteral reconstruction, most notably through the development and validation of completely intracorporeal robotic ileal ureteric replacement—a technically demanding alternative to open surgery for patients with extensive ureteral damage. His landmark 2017 study on this procedure, cited over 40 times, demonstrated its feasibility, safety, and functional outcomes, establishing a new standard for managing long-segment ureteral strictures and injuries. Beyond this, Janusonis has contributed to the broader field of robotic urology, exploring innovations in pyeloplasty, ureteroneocystostomy, and other reconstructive surgeries. His work has been recognized for its impact on reducing morbidity and improving recovery times, with his publications collectively cited hundreds of times. A sought-after educator and collaborator, Janusonis continues to shape the future of urologic surgery by training the next generation of robotic surgeons and pushing the boundaries of what is achievable through minimally invasive approaches.
