About

Joni Dossantos is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex bladder and pelvic conditions, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted procedures and benign urologic tumors. His most cited paper, "Robotic assisted transvesical excision of recurrent bladder leiomyoma with intraoperative ultrasound guidance" (2023), addresses the rare and challenging management of bladder leiomyoma—a benign tumor that can present with varied symptoms and often requires surgical excision. Dossantos’s contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility and safety of a robotic-assisted transvesical approach combined with intraoperative ultrasound, offering a precise, minimally invasive alternative to traditional open surgery. This work, though early in its citation impact (3 citations), fills a critical gap in the literature, as few reports detail robotic techniques for this uncommon tumor. Dossantos’s research underscores his commitment to advancing surgical innovation and improving outcomes for patients with rare urologic conditions. His work is particularly valuable for trainees and surgeons seeking evidence-based guidance on robotic approaches in urologic oncology and benign disease management.
