About
Yong Seung Lee is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced minimally invasive and robotic surgical techniques, with a particular focus on pyeloplasty, ureteral reconstruction, and prostatectomy. He is widely recognized as a pioneer in single-port robotic surgery, having published some of the earliest clinical experiences using the da Vinci SP® surgical system for procedures including pyeloplasty and ureteral reconstruction in both adult and pediatric populations. His 2019 reports on single-site robot-assisted pyeloplasty, which have garnered over 30 citations each, demonstrated the feasibility of overcoming triangulation limitations inherent to single-port approaches, offering patients superior cosmetic outcomes without compromising surgical precision. His comparative studies between single-port and multi-port robotic systems in children have become important references for surgeons navigating this evolving landscape. Lee's earlier work on open versus robotic radical prostatectomy and extraperitoneal versus transperitoneal approaches further reflects his longstanding commitment to evidence-based surgical innovation. Collectively, his research has helped define best practices in complex reconstructive urology and established him as a leading voice in the adoption of next-generation robotic platforms in clinical settings.
