About

Aref S. Sayegh is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on the robotic and minimally invasive management of complex pelvic surgical complications. His primary research areas include urinary fistula repair, obturator nerve injury, and post-prostatectomy complications such as rectovesical fistulae and vesicourethral anastomotic strictures. Dr. Sayegh has made significant contributions by developing and standardizing step-by-step robotic techniques for these challenging conditions, as demonstrated in his highly cited 2023 paper on obturator nerve injury scenarios and management strategies (15 citations). His work on robotic simultaneous repair of rectovesical fistula with vesicourethral anastomotic stricture (8 citations) and minimally invasive management of rectourethral fistulae (7 citations) has provided critical guidance for surgeons worldwide. Notably, his research on superior mesenteric artery injury during robotic nephrectomy and the “Keyhole Technique” for distal ureter excision showcases his commitment to advancing surgical safety and precision. With a growing citation impact and a portfolio of technique-focused publications, Dr. Sayegh is recognized as an authority on robotic pelvic surgery and complication management.
