About
Omar Fahmy is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for bladder and prostate cancers. His primary research areas include robot-assisted radical cystectomy, intracorporeal urinary diversion, and single-port robotic surgery. Fahmy’s major contributions lie in refining complex robotic procedures to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical morbidity. He is best known for developing the “Y pouch neobladder,” a simplified method for intracorporeal neobladder construction after robotic cystectomy, which has helped make this demanding technique more reproducible and accessible. His systematic review and meta-analysis comparing single-port versus multiple-port robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, which has garnered 75 citations, provides critical evidence on the safety and feasibility of these evolving approaches. With over 100 cumulative citations, his work on robotic neobladder diversion has shaped current clinical practice, demonstrating that intracorporeal reconstruction is not only feasible but can yield excellent functional and oncologic results. Fahmy’s research continues to push the boundaries of robotic urology, offering patients less invasive options with faster recovery.
