About

Dr. Jonathan Yamzon is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive, robot-assisted treatments for bladder and prostate cancers. His major contributions lie in systematically evaluating and improving surgical outcomes, particularly for radical cystectomy and prostatectomy. His landmark 2013 study, cited over 115 times, provided a standardized analysis of complications following robot-assisted radical cystectomy by urinary diversion type, filling a critical gap in the literature. He has also led influential prospective trials, including a non-inferiority study demonstrating that eliminating pelvic drains after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy does not increase adverse events—a finding that has streamlined postoperative care. Dr. Yamzon’s research on using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence to reduce ureteroenteric anastomotic strictures, with over 30 citations, represents a significant advance in reconstructive urology. His work on lymph node mapping and antibiotic-irrigating wound protectors further underscores his commitment to reducing complications and improving oncologic outcomes. With multiple high-impact studies on pediatric and adult robotic surgery, Dr. Yamzon is recognized as a leader in evidence-based, patient-centered urologic innovation.
