About

Dr. Peyton Skupin is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on reconstructive urology, with a particular focus on optimizing surgical outcomes for ureteral injuries and obstructions. Her major contributions lie in comparing surgical approaches to ureteroneocystostomy—the reimplantation of the ureter into the bladder. In her landmark 2019 study (18 citations), she challenged conventional wisdom by demonstrating that early repair of iatrogenic ureteral injuries does not jeopardize patient outcomes, offering critical guidance for clinical decision-making. Building on this, her 2020 comparative analysis (15 citations) rigorously evaluated robotic versus open ureteroneocystostomy for ureteral obstruction, providing evidence that robotic approaches may offer significant benefits in recovery and complication rates. Through these retrospective studies, Dr. Skupin has helped define best practices in minimally invasive reconstructive surgery, directly impacting surgical planning for complex urologic cases. Her work is widely cited by peers seeking evidence-based approaches to ureteral repair, establishing her as a thoughtful voice in the evolution of robotic urologic surgery.
