About
Dr. John Nyquist is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally advanced the field of robot-assisted bladder cancer surgery. His primary research focuses on developing and refining minimally invasive techniques for radical cystectomy and urinary diversion, particularly the creation of intracorporeal ileal conduits and neobladders. Dr. Nyquist’s most significant contributions include the introduction of the innovative “Marionette” technique for robot-assisted intracorporeal ileal conduit, detailed in his highly cited 2010 paper (71 citations), which has become a foundational method for surgeons worldwide. He also developed and validated the Robotic Anastomosis Competency Evaluation (RACE), a critical tool for assessing surgical skill in urethrovesical anastomosis during prostatectomy (64 citations). With over 200 total citations, his work has established safer, more reproducible approaches to complex robotic procedures, including the “W”-configuration orthotopic neobladder. Dr. Nyquist’s dedication to surgical education and technical innovation continues to shape the next generation of robotic surgeons, making him a leading authority in the fight against bladder and prostate cancers.
