About

Kang Su Cho is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of robotic and minimally invasive urologic oncology, with a particular focus on prostate and bladder cancer. His research has consistently explored the clinical utility, surgical refinements, and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), establishing him as a notable contributor to this rapidly evolving surgical discipline. Among his most influential contributions is a pioneering investigation into the outcomes of RARP in patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer, a study that has garnered 72 citations and challenged conventional treatment paradigms for advanced disease. His rigorous methodological work includes a widely cited meta-analysis comparing transperitoneal and extraperitoneal surgical approaches to RARP, as well as a propensity score-matching study examining lymphocele risk—both published in 2013 and collectively cited nearly 80 times. Cho has also contributed systematic reviews evaluating the role of bladder neck preservation in long-term urinary continence outcomes. Beyond prostatectomy, his early publications document foundational experience with robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and radical cystectomy in Korea, reflecting a broad surgical vision. Across his body of work, Cho's research has helped define best practices in robotic urology, benefiting surgeons and patients worldwide.
