About
Sangjun Yoo is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving functional outcomes after robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy for prostate cancer. His key research areas include nerve-sparing surgical techniques, postoperative sexual function, and the optimization of oncologic control without compromising quality of life. Yoo’s most cited study, “Width of spared neurovascular bundle after robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy in patients with prostate cancer: is it a reliable factor for predicting postoperative sexual outcome?” (2020), investigated the relationship between the measured width of the spared neurovascular bundle (NVB) during surgery and subsequent erectile function. In a cohort of 105 patients with localized prostate cancer and erectile hardness scores of 2 or higher, his findings provided critical insights into how surgical precision in preserving NVB tissue can predict sexual recovery. Although his citation count is still growing, this work has already informed clinical decision-making in robotic prostatectomy. Yoo’s contributions are particularly valuable for urologists seeking evidence-based benchmarks for nerve-sparing techniques, and his research continues to shape the balance between cancer eradication and functional preservation.
