About
Dr. Mark-Bram Bouman is a leading surgeon and researcher in transgender medicine, with a primary focus on gender-affirming surgeries and their functional outcomes. His work centers on optimizing surgical techniques for both transmasculine and transfeminine individuals, particularly in vaginoplasty and colpectomy procedures. His most cited paper, “Vaginal Canal Reconstruction in Penile Inversion Vaginoplasty with Flaps, Peritoneum, or Skin Grafts: Where Is the Evidence?” (38 citations), critically evaluates different lining techniques for neovaginal creation, highlighting the lack of robust evidence and guiding future research toward improved surgical outcomes. In another key study, “The effect of colpectomy on lower urinary tract function in transgender men” (4 citations), Bouman provides crucial insights into the rarely studied impact of colpectomy on voiding function, addressing a significant gap in postoperative care. Through these contributions, Bouman has advanced the evidence base for gender-affirming surgery, emphasizing patient safety and functional results. His work is essential for clinicians and researchers striving to refine surgical protocols and enhance quality of life for transgender patients.
