About

Dr. Junchan Joshua Yune is a pioneering urogynecologist whose work has significantly advanced the safety and precision of pelvic reconstructive surgery. His research centers on surgical innovation, postoperative outcomes, and intraoperative imaging techniques. Dr. Yune is best known for his landmark study on the use of indocyanine green (ICG) for intraoperative localization of the ureter, a technique that has revolutionized how surgeons prevent ureteral injury during complex pelvic procedures. This highly influential paper has garnered 144 citations, underscoring its lasting impact on surgical practice. In another key contribution, Dr. Yune investigated postoperative urinary retention following pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair, comparing transvaginal versus robotic transabdominal approaches. His findings, published in 2018, identified critical risk factors and demonstrated that robotic surgery may carry a higher retention rate, guiding surgeons toward more informed, patient-specific treatment decisions. Through these contributions, Dr. Yune has not only enhanced surgical safety but also deepened our understanding of recovery after pelvic floor repair, making him a respected voice in urogynecology and a valuable resource for clinicians and researchers alike.
