About

Dr. Suzy Na is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Her primary research areas include robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP), bladder neck preservation, and optimizing functional outcomes in prostate surgery. Dr. Na’s most notable contribution is her pioneering work on bladder neck sparing (BNS) robot-assisted simple prostatectomy, detailed in her highly cited 2020 study. In this landmark paper, she presents a stepwise surgical description and clinical outcomes from 30 consecutive BPH patients who underwent BNS RASP between 2015 and 2018. Her research demonstrates that this technique can effectively reduce postoperative complications, preserve antegrade ejaculation, and improve urinary continence compared to traditional approaches. With 18 citations, this work has become a reference point for surgeons seeking to refine prostatectomy methods. Dr. Na’s contributions are particularly impactful for patients seeking durable relief from BPH symptoms while maintaining quality of life, and her stepwise surgical guide has been widely adopted in training programs. Her ongoing work continues to shape the evolution of robotic urologic surgery.
