About
Dr. Prasanna Kumar is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes for patients undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer. His most cited study, "Natural History, Predictors and Management of Ureteroenteric Strictures after Robot Assisted Radical Cystectomy" (2017, 85 citations), provides a landmark analysis of the most common complication requiring reoperation after this procedure. By retrospectively reviewing a large quality assurance database, Dr. Kumar identified key predictors of ureteroenteric strictures and established evidence-based management protocols that have directly influenced clinical practice. This work has become a foundational reference for urologists seeking to reduce postoperative complications and improve patient quality of life. Beyond this seminal paper, Dr. Kumar’s broader research portfolio encompasses robotic surgical techniques, oncologic outcomes, and reconstructive urology. His contributions are widely cited by peers and have helped standardize care in complex urologic oncology, making him a respected authority in the field.
