About

Dragan J. Golijanin is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgery for urologic cancers and reconstructive procedures. His major contributions center on refining and validating robotic techniques for complex kidney and bladder surgeries, including robot-assisted pyeloplasty, partial nephrectomy, and radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion. Golijanin’s landmark study on robot-assisted pyeloplasty, analyzing 100 consecutive cases, demonstrated the safety and efficacy of this approach, earning 14 citations and establishing a benchmark for single-center outcomes. He also led early feasibility research on near-infrared fluorescence imaging using intravenous indocyanine green for intraoperative visualization of renal cortical tumors, a novel technique that enhances surgical precision. His work on robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy with intracorporeal ileal conduit diversion provided crucial initial clinical experience, helping to standardize this challenging procedure. With a cumulative impact of over 29 citations across his most-cited papers, Golijanin’s contributions have directly shaped modern urologic practice, offering patients less invasive options with improved recovery. His dedication to innovation and clinical excellence continues to inspire the next generation of urologic surgeons.
