About
Sida Cheng is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose work centers on minimally invasive reconstructive techniques for complex ureteral and renal pelvic pathologies. His major contributions lie in advancing laparoscopic and robotic ureteroplasty, particularly for managing long proximal or middle ureteral strictures and recurrent ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). Cheng has developed and refined innovative surgical strategies, including the “omental wrapping” technique with onlay flaps or grafts, and the “wishbone” anastomosis and “ureteral plate” method for challenging re-do pyeloplasties. His research demonstrates the feasibility and safety of novel robotic systems, such as the KangDuo-Surgical Robot-01, and integrates three-dimensional virtual reconstruction models for real-time surgical navigation, enhancing precision in robot-assisted pyeloplasty. With over 130 citations across his most-cited works, Cheng’s impact is evident in his leadership of prospective clinical studies and retrospective reviews that have shaped modern ureteral reconstruction. His work also addresses ureterovaginal fistulas and ureteral endometriosis, showcasing a broad expertise. A key figure in advancing robotic urology, Cheng’s innovations offer safer, more effective solutions for patients with complex urinary tract obstructions.
