About
Dr. Zayn Mehboob is a leading figure in urologic oncology, with a focused expertise in robotic surgery for bladder and prostate cancers. His major contributions center on developing and validating objective tools to assess surgical skill, most notably through the creation of the Robotic Anastomosis Competency Evaluation (RACE). This work, detailed in his highly cited 2014 paper (64 citations), provides a structured framework for training surgeons in the critical urethrovesical anastomosis during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. Dr. Mehboob has also significantly advanced the understanding of long-term outcomes in bladder cancer, as demonstrated by his landmark study on oncologic outcomes following robot-assisted radical cystectomy with a minimum five-year follow-up (47 citations). This work, from the Roswell Park Cancer Institute, provides crucial evidence on the durability and efficacy of the robotic approach. Additionally, his research explores prognostic tools like the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) to predict patient outcomes, showcasing his commitment to integrating perioperative risk assessment into surgical decision-making. Through these efforts, Dr. Mehboob has helped bridge the gap between surgical innovation, rigorous training, and evidence-based patient care.
