About
Lisa J. Kroon is a leading urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes for prostate cancer patients, with a particular focus on nerve-sparing techniques and complication management. Her most impactful contributions include pioneering the use of intraoperative NeuroSAFE (neurovascular structure-adjacent frozen-section analysis) during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). In a landmark 2024 study, she demonstrated that centralized prostatectomy with NeuroSAFE significantly improves surgical margin control—a critical factor in reducing cancer recurrence—while preserving erectile function. This work has already garnered 9 citations, reflecting its immediate influence on surgical practice. Dr. Kroon has also made essential contributions to understanding postoperative complications, authoring a key 2023 study on lymphoceles after pelvic lymph node dissection during RARP. Her research, which identified risk factors and incidence rates for symptomatic lymphoceles (6 citations), provides surgeons with evidence-based strategies for prevention and management. Through her dual focus on optimizing oncologic outcomes and minimizing morbidity, Dr. Kroon is helping to refine the standard of care for men undergoing prostate cancer surgery.
