About

Sunghyun Paick is a leading urologist whose research has significantly shaped the surgical management of prostate cancer and the clinical treatment of kidney stone disease. His major contributions are defined by large-scale, evidence-based analyses that directly inform surgical decision-making. Notably, his 2025 network meta-analysis comparing robot-assisted, laparoscopic, and open radical prostatectomy—cited 16 times—provides a definitive, contemporary benchmark for perioperative and functional outcomes. Furthermore, his work on Retzius-sparing robotic prostatectomy (2022, 12 citations) has helped refine surgical techniques to improve patient recovery. In the field of endourology, Dr. Paick co-authored the 2023 Korean Society of Endourology and Robotics (KSER) recommendations on urolithiasis (22 citations), offering crucial, evidence-based guidance for clinical practice. He has also investigated the rare but serious complication of urolithiasis in kidney transplant patients (2024). As a key contributor to the KSER update series, Dr. Paick’s work provides the rigorous, systematic evidence that urologists rely on to optimize both oncologic and functional outcomes for their patients.
