About
Jonathan Vollemaere is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and minimally invasive treatments for bladder cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia. His major contributions include demonstrating that surgical experience significantly improves perioperative and oncological outcomes in RARC with intracorporeal urinary diversion, with his landmark 2020 study (52 citations) providing critical evidence from a high-volume referral center. He also showed that this robotic approach reduces postoperative complications primarily in highly comorbid patients, aligning with standardized EAU Guidelines methodology (42 citations). Vollemaere has pioneered techniques for orthotopic neobladder reconstruction, reporting functional outcomes including urinary continence and erectile function at 12 months post-surgery (32 citations). His comparative analysis of HoLEP versus robot-assisted simple prostatectomy for extremely large prostates (≥200 cc) offers valuable treatment guidance (18 citations). As a member of the EAU Robotic Urology Section Scientific Working Group, he co-authored a 2024 report on reducing morbidity after neobladder reconstruction (8 citations). His work has accumulated over 160 citations, establishing him as an authority on optimizing surgical outcomes and patient selection in robotic urologic oncology.
