About
Ryan Chandhoke is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on complex stone disease, congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. His major contributions center on optimizing surgical safety and outcomes in patients with challenging anatomy. In his most cited work, "Ultrasound-Guided Access in a Malrotated Kidney: Optimally Safe and Effective" (2020, 3 citations), Chandhoke demonstrated how ultrasound guidance can overcome the technical difficulties of percutaneous nephrolithotomy in malrotated kidneys—a condition that distorts the collecting system and increases complication risk. This study provides a practical, radiation-sparing approach that enhances procedural safety. His second most cited paper, "Extravesical Ectopic Ureteral Calculus Obstruction in a Completely Duplicated Collecting System" (2019, 2 citations), reports a rare case of a 75-year-old man with a duplicated system and ectopic ureteral stone obstruction following robotic prostatectomy, highlighting the diagnostic and management challenges in patients with prior pelvic surgery. Though early in his career, Chandhoke’s work addresses niche but high-stakes clinical scenarios, offering evidence-based solutions for urologists managing complex stone disease. His research is particularly valuable for trainees and surgeons seeking to expand their skills in ultrasound-guided access and congenital anomaly management.
