About
Zhijiao Zhou is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for penile cancer management, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted surgeries and fluorescence imaging. Zhou’s most notable contribution is the development of a novel “hypogastric subcutaneous approach” for robotic bilateral inguinal lymphadenectomy, guided by indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging—a technique detailed in their highly cited 2022 paper, “Light green up.” This innovation directly addresses the critical challenge of improving lymph node dissection efficiency while reducing surgical complications, a major hurdle in preventing lymph node metastasis in penile cancer. By integrating real-time ICG imaging, Zhou has enhanced the precision of identifying sentinel lymph nodes, offering a safer, more effective alternative to traditional open surgery. With 8 citations already, this work is gaining traction as a standard reference in urologic oncology. Zhou’s achievements exemplify how surgical innovation can transform patient outcomes, making them a key figure in the evolution of robotic urologic surgery and a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the intersection of imaging technology and cancer treatment.
