About

Jonathan Riddell is a pediatric urologist whose work centers on minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex urological conditions in children. His primary research focuses on advancing robotic-assisted procedures to improve outcomes for patients requiring reconstructive surgery, particularly those with neurogenic bladder or bowel dysfunction. Riddell’s most cited paper, “Robotic conversion of cecostomy tube to catheterizable antegrade continence enema (ACE): Surgical technique” (2018), details a novel approach that transforms a temporary cecostomy tube into a permanent, catheterizable ACE channel using robotic precision. This contribution is significant because it offers a less invasive alternative for children needing long-term bowel management, reducing recovery time and surgical complications. With 5 citations, this work has been recognized by peers as a practical advancement in pediatric urology, showcasing Riddell’s commitment to refining surgical techniques for better patient quality of life. His broader contributions include developing standardized protocols for robotic urological surgeries in children, which have been adopted in several pediatric centers. Riddell’s research underscores the potential of robotic technology to transform pediatric care, making him a notable figure in the field of minimally invasive pediatric urology.
