About

Dr. Junwei Wu is a pioneering surgeon in the field of minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (R-LESS) for pelvic floor reconstruction. His most cited work, "Robotic Single-Site Sacrocolpopexy with Retroperitoneal Tunneling" (2018, 20 citations), represents a significant contribution to the advancement of sacrocolpopexy techniques. In this retrospective series of 15 cases, Dr. Wu demonstrated the safety and feasibility of performing sacrocolpopexy through a single umbilical incision using the da Vinci robotic system, combined with the innovative use of V-Loc barbed sutures for retroperitoneal tunneling. This approach offers patients the benefits of reduced scarring, less postoperative pain, and faster recovery compared to traditional multi-port robotic surgery. By meticulously documenting the surgical technique and outcomes, Dr. Wu has provided a valuable roadmap for other surgeons seeking to adopt this challenging procedure. His work has helped establish R-LESS sacrocolpopexy as a viable, less invasive option for women with pelvic organ prolapse, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in robotic gynecologic surgery.
