About
Sang Hyub Lee is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical outcomes for bladder and prostate cancer, with a particular focus on robot-assisted techniques. His major contributions lie in optimizing perioperative care and defining oncologic benchmarks for robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC). Through his involvement with the multi-institutional KORARC database, Lee has produced landmark studies demonstrating how intraoperative fluid volume affects postoperative ileus recovery, and how achieving a "pentafecta" of surgical quality metrics correlates with improved oncologic outcomes. His research on intracorporeal versus extracorporeal urinary diversion, with 10 citations, provides critical evidence for surgical decision-making. Lee also co-authored the Korean Society of Endourology and Robotics (KSER) guidelines on urolithiasis (22 citations), shaping national clinical standards. His longitudinal study on health-related quality of life after radical prostatectomy (21 citations) offers valuable insights for patient counseling. With papers consistently cited in the double digits and a growing body of work on gender-related outcomes and smoking’s impact on surgical complications, Lee is establishing himself as a key voice in evidence-based urologic oncology.
