About

Dr. Jenny Guo is a leading urologic researcher whose work focuses on minimally invasive surgical treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), particularly the prostatic urethral lift (PUL) procedure. Her landmark 2023 study, which has garnered 7 citations, provides critical insights into the long-term durability of PUL by examining surgical re-treatment rates. Dr. Guo’s research revealed that within five years of a PUL procedure, approximately one in seven patients requires additional surgical intervention for BPH—a finding that has significant implications for patient counseling and treatment planning. By highlighting this re-treatment risk, her work helps urologists set realistic expectations and refine patient selection criteria. Dr. Guo’s contributions are particularly valuable given that PUL now accounts for roughly one-quarter of all surgical BPH procedures in the United States. Her rigorous analysis of real-world outcomes bridges the gap between clinical trial data and everyday practice, making her a trusted voice in evidence-based urology. For students and researchers, Dr. Guo exemplifies how careful longitudinal studies can improve surgical decision-making and patient care.
