About
Jannah H. Thompson is a leading urologic oncologist whose research has advanced the evidence base for minimally invasive surgical approaches in bladder cancer care. Her most cited work, a landmark 2007 study comparing robot-assisted radical cystectomy to open surgery, was among the first to rigorously assess postoperative pain and opioid requirements. By demonstrating that robotic techniques could reduce patient-reported pain and narcotic use, Thompson provided crucial data that helped shift clinical practice toward less invasive options. This paper, with 55 citations, remains a foundational reference for surgeons evaluating recovery outcomes. Beyond this seminal contribution, Thompson’s broader research focuses on improving perioperative care and quality of life for bladder cancer patients. Her work has influenced surgical protocols and pain management strategies, directly impacting patient recovery experiences. A respected clinician-scientist, Thompson continues to investigate how technological innovations can reduce the burden of major urologic surgery, making her a key voice in the ongoing evolution of robotic-assisted procedures.
