About
Dr. Du Geon Moon is a prominent urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on enhancing recovery and functional outcomes in patients undergoing major urologic procedures. His most cited study, a prospective randomized trial published in 2010, demonstrated that chewing gum significantly stimulates bowel motility after radical cystectomy for bladder cancer, achieving over 105 citations and establishing a simple, cost-effective intervention for postoperative ileus. This work has influenced enhanced recovery protocols globally. More recently, Dr. Moon has advanced the field of benign prostatic hyperplasia surgery, pioneering a urethral-sparing robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (US-RASP) that preserves ejaculatory function. In a 2024 comparative analysis, his team showed that this novel technique offers superior postoperative outcomes and ejaculation preservation compared to traditional trans-vesical approaches, with early citations reflecting its clinical promise. By bridging evidence-based perioperative care with surgical innovation, Dr. Moon’s research directly improves patient quality of life. His contributions have made him a respected voice in urologic oncology and reconstructive surgery, with ongoing work likely to further shape standards of care.
