About
Jun Cheon is a prominent urological surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of robotic and minimally invasive urological oncology. His research spans several interconnected domains, including robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, robot-assisted radical cystectomy, surgical training simulation, and perioperative care optimization. Among his most influential contributions is his investigation into early continence recovery following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, drawing on data from over 1,200 patients to identify key preoperative and intraoperative predictors — work that has garnered 88 citations and shaped surgical decision-making worldwide. His pioneering studies on intracorporeal urinary diversion following robot-assisted cystectomy (cited up to 49 times) helped establish the feasibility and comparative advantages of fully robotic urinary reconstruction. Notably, his 2010 randomized trial demonstrating that chewing gum accelerates bowel recovery after cystectomy — now with 105 citations — remains one of his most widely referenced works. Cheon has also made meaningful contributions to surgical education, developing and validating robotic virtual reality simulation curricula and studying learning curves for trainees. His research on accessory pudendal artery anatomy further reflects his commitment to improving functional outcomes. Across his body of work, Cheon has established himself as a high-volume, innovative surgeon-scientist driving forward the science of robotic urology.
