About
Dr. Yazan Al Salhi is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose research is reshaping the landscape of prostate and pelvic surgery. His work centers on optimizing surgical outcomes for benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer, with a particular focus on minimally invasive techniques like Holmium laser enucleation (HoLEP) and robotic-assisted surgery. Dr. Al Salhi’s major contributions include leading a prospective multicenter randomized study demonstrating that HoLEP is as effective as minimally invasive simple prostatectomy for large-volume prostates (≥120 mL), a finding with over 55 citations that has influenced clinical guidelines. He has also advanced the understanding of functional recovery after radical prostatectomy, notably through a multicenter analysis linking prostatic shape to early continence recovery. Demonstrating remarkable breadth, his 2023 study on the environmental impact of laparoscopic versus robotic prostatectomy—showing a measurable effect on global climate—has garnered 29 citations and sparked important conversations about sustainability in surgery. With over 100 total citations across his portfolio, Dr. Al Salhi’s work on patient satisfaction, nerve-sparing techniques, and urinary continence continues to shape best practices in urologic oncology and reconstructive surgery.
