About Juan Pablo Dugarte Del Burgo
IMG physician and Research Fellow at USC with a background in Urology and General Surgery, with experience in robotic surgery, minimally invasive surgery, oncology, reconstructive urology, and outcomes research. My work focuses on academic research, surgical education, clinical outcomes, and innovation in surgical techniques. I have been involved in multiple publications, abstracts, and U.S. surgical rotations with exposure to laparoscopic and robotic surgery. I am interested in academic surgery, surgical training, and advancing patient care through research and technology.

Robotic Management of Complex Ileal Conduit Complications
Complex ileal conduit complications demand more than a one-size-fits-all repair. In our recent Journal of Robotic Surgery article, we present a mechanism-based robotic approach to strictures, conduit torsion, parastomal hernia, and crossed ureters.

Robotic retroperitoneal lymph node dissection: a stepwise technical guide
Robotic RPLND is a technically demanding operation requiring exposure, template discipline, nerve preservation, and vascular control. This article presents a stepwise approach emphasizing peritoneal flap suspension, bowel exclusion, posterior plane development, and selective branch control.
Surgical Determinants of Outcomes in Partial Nephrectomy: a Contemporary Review
Partial nephrectomy is now the standard nephron-sparing treatment for small renal masses. This review summarizes key technical determinants of outcomes, including resection, ischemia control, parenchymal preservation, imaging, hemostasis, and reconstruction.
