About
Ned Kinnear is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes in minimally invasive procedures, particularly in robotic and laparoscopic surgery. His key research areas include surgical vision optimization, urological oncology, and the prevention of iatrogenic injuries. Kinnear’s most cited work, a 2017 review on visual occlusion during minimally invasive surgery (40 citations), systematically addresses the persistent problem of lens fogging and optical loss, offering practical solutions that enhance operative safety and efficiency. He also led a multi-institutional study on robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for complex renal lesions (34 citations), demonstrating strategies to expand the applicability of nephron-sparing surgery. His systematic review of urological injuries during caesarean section and hysterectomy (32 citations) provides critical insights into preventing bladder and ureteric damage, with implications for both urologists and obstetricians. More recently, Kinnear has investigated the impact of frozen section analysis on outcomes in robot-assisted prostatectomy and explored ophthalmic complications of robotic surgery, showcasing his commitment to refining surgical techniques and patient safety. With a growing citation record and a focus on translating technical challenges into evidence-based solutions, Kinnear is a rising voice in urological innovation.
