About
Dr. Benjamin Press is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes for patients with urologic cancers and benign prostatic hyperplasia. His primary research areas include the prevention and management of complications following robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) for kidney cancer, and the prediction of postoperative urinary incontinence after minimally invasive prostate surgery. In a landmark 2019 study, Dr. Press systematically assessed the incidence and risk factors for arterial malformations and urine leaks after RPN, providing critical benchmarks that have informed surgical technique and patient counseling. This work has been cited over 20 times, reflecting its influence in the field. More recently, he has pioneered the use of preoperative pelvic MRI measurements to predict urinary incontinence after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP), a novel application that could personalize surgical planning. By bridging anatomical imaging with functional outcomes, Dr. Press is helping to refine patient selection and set realistic expectations, ultimately advancing the safety and quality of life in urologic surgery.
