About
Dr. Jonas Herrmann is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer. His primary research areas include laser enucleation techniques—such as Thulium and Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuLEP and HoLEP)—and robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP). Dr. Herrmann’s major contributions lie in systematically comparing these emerging surgical approaches to determine which offers superior outcomes for patients with large prostate glands. His 2022 meta-analysis comparing RASP to endoscopic enucleation, which has garnered 30 citations, is a key reference for surgeons choosing between these techniques. He has also investigated perioperative outcomes through propensity score-matched analyses, providing robust evidence on safety and efficiency. Beyond BPH, Dr. Herrmann has evaluated guideline adherence for pelvic lymph node dissection in prostate cancer and explored the role of robotic systems in flexible ureterorenoscopy for kidney stones. His work on antibiotic prophylaxis in radical prostatectomy addresses a critical gap in perioperative care. With publications spanning German-language and international journals, Dr. Herrmann is shaping evidence-based practice in urologic surgery, particularly for complex, high-volume prostate cases.
