About
Joanna Perry‐Keene is a leading urological surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally shaped the modern surgical management of prostate cancer. Her primary research focus lies in the rigorous, evidence-based comparison of robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) versus traditional open radical retropubic prostatectomy. Her landmark contribution is the first randomised controlled phase 3 study comparing these techniques, published in *The Lancet* (2016), which has garnered over 690 citations. This pivotal trial provided early, high-quality data on functional and oncological outcomes, directly informing clinical decision-making worldwide. Beyond her work on prostate cancer, Perry‐Keene has made notable contributions to rare urological pathology, including a seminal case review on primary vesical clear cell adenocarcinoma arising from endometriosis, a condition with sparse literature. Her dedication to prospective randomised trials in surgical oncology—evidenced by her ongoing work from 2013—demonstrates a commitment to moving beyond anecdotal evidence. Through her research, Perry‐Keene has helped establish the evidence base for robotic surgery, influencing surgical practice and improving patient outcomes across the globe.
