About

Yong Seong Lee is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on robotic and minimally invasive urological surgery, with particular expertise in robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC), prostate cancer surgery, and kidney transplantation techniques. His research has made meaningful contributions to the field by examining how perioperative factors — including intraoperative fluid management — influence surgical recovery, with his 2021 study on postoperative ileus following RARC attracting 24 citations and offering practical clinical guidance. Through his involvement with the multi-institutional KORARC database, representing 12 Korean centers and over 730 patients, Lee has helped establish national benchmarks for oncological outcomes after RARC, exploring critical metrics such as pentafecta attainment and the comparative efficacy of intracorporeal versus extracorporeal urinary diversion. His work on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy highlights innovations in neurovascular bundle preservation and continence recovery techniques, reflecting a commitment to improving patients' quality of life. More recently, Lee has extended his research into artificial intelligence applications, publishing a 2023 study predicting postoperative renal function after partial nephrectomy. Collectively, his body of work demonstrates a sophisticated integration of large-scale outcomes research and technical surgical innovation within contemporary robotic urology.
