About

Edward Lambert is a leading urologic robotic surgeon whose research focuses on optimizing surgical techniques for complex oncologic and benign conditions. His major contributions center on robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion, demonstrating that this approach reduces postoperative complications primarily in highly comorbid patients—a finding that has shaped perioperative risk stratification. Lambert has also advanced the field through comparative studies of intracorporeal versus extracorporeal kidney autotransplantation and by providing the first comprehensive atlas of orthotopic neobladder techniques. His work on holmium laser enucleation versus robot-assisted simple prostatectomy for extremely large prostates (≥200 cc) offers critical guidance for managing lower urinary tract symptoms. With over 200 citations across his top papers, Lambert has also contributed to surgical education by validating the Global Evaluative Assessment of Robotic Skills (GEARS) for proficiency assessment. His investigations into Retzius-sparing prostatectomy and off-clamp partial nephrectomy demonstrate a commitment to refining robotic approaches for better functional outcomes. As a member of the ERUS/YAU working group, Lambert actively shapes the adoption patterns of emerging robotic systems at tertiary centers.
