Qualifications
Dr. Kittinut Kijvikai is a urologist at Bumrungrad International Hospital. He performs Robotic da Vinci prostatectomy and surgical management of urological cancers. The specialist researches methods to improve surgical outcomes for prostate and bladder cancer.
Urological Surgery & Oncology
Dr. Kijvikai treats conditions of the urinary system and male reproductive organs. The doctor treats prostate, bladder, and kidney cancer. He also treats non-oncological conditions such as urolithiasis and prostatitis. Urolithiasis refers to the formation of stones in the kidney, bladder, or urinary tract.
The doctor performs several surgical procedures:
- Robotic da Vinci prostatectomy — a surgery using a robotic system to remove the prostate gland
- Radical prostatectomy
- Nephrectomy
- Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP)
- Robotic-assisted cystectomy
Dr. Kijvikai uses robotic technology to increase surgical precision. These techniques help reduce recovery time and perioperative risks. As a result, patients often experience fewer complications during and after surgery.
Research & Clinical Contributions
The specialist has published studies focused on refining urological surgical techniques. His research evaluates how specific therapies improve patient outcomes after surgery. Furthermore, he investigates the benefits of neoadjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (NADT).
Notable publications and areas of study include:
- 'Urethral Traction after Transurethral Resection of the Prostate: Is it necessary?' – Insight Urology
- 'Review of the evidence for robotic-assisted robotic cystectomy and intra-corporeal urinary diversion in bladder cancer' – Translational Andrology and Urology
- Studies on neoadjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (NADT) in Research and Reports in Urology
His work on NADT helps clinicians understand how to improve outcomes for prostate cancer patients. He also evaluates the technical challenges of robotic-assisted approaches for bladder cancer treatment. This research provides evidence for the effectiveness of robotic surgery in urology.
Professional Environment
Dr. Kijvikai practices at Bumrungrad International Hospital in Bangkok. The facility holds multiple international accreditations, including JCI and ISO certifications. This environment supports the use of robotic systems for surgeries. These systems allow for high-precision movements during complex procedures.
