With extensive international publications, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sercan Yılmaz is a leading expert in Robotic, Laser, and Minimally Invasive Urological Surgery.
Associate Professor MD. Sercan Yılmaz is a highly skilled Urology specialist at Liv Hospital Ulus, dedicated to providing world-class care through the most advanced technology and a profoundly patient-centric philosophy. His clinical expertise focuses on minimally invasive and robotic surgical techniques, which are crucial for achieving faster recovery and maximizing patient comfort. Dr. Yılmaz is a pioneer in the use of cutting-edge Laser Prostate Surgeries, including HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate) and ThuFLEP (Thulium Fiber Laser Enucleation of the Prostate). He applies these techniques across a full range of prostate sizes, ensuring surgical precision and superior clinical outcomes with less tissue damage and reduced hospitalization time.
His mastery extends to complex Robotic & Laparoscopic Surgery, particularly for Urological Oncological Surgeries affecting the kidneys and prostate. A key area of diagnostic specialization is the Robotic Transperineal Prostate MRI/Ultrasound Fusion Biopsy, which utilizes advanced imaging technology to increase the accuracy of prostate cancer detection significantly. Furthermore, Dr. Yılmaz holds specialized expertise in Female Urology, Neuro-Urology, and reconstructive procedures like Graft Urethroplasty surgeries for urethral stenosis. His involvement in the surgical development of techniques like the "Omega Sign" in HoLEP underscores his commitment to refining advanced treatments that directly improve functional results, such as continence. Dr. Yılmaz's integrated use of technology, coupled with his commitment to comprehensive, compassionate care, ensures patients receive the safest and most effective interventions available.
As a respected Associate Professor and academic authority, Dr. Sercan Yılmaz grounds his practice in rigorous evidence-based medicine and continuous scientific research. Having completed his education and residency at the prestigious Gülhane Military Medical Faculty and Academy, he maintains a strong commitment to his educator role and the advancement of urological science. Dr. Yılmaz is an active contributor to the global scientific community, with a substantial portfolio of over 31 publications in high-impact, peer-reviewed journals, focusing heavily on modern surgical techniques like laser prostate enucleation and robotic-assisted procedures.
His research contributions often investigate key procedural refinements, such as the impact of the prostate's shape on HoLEP surgery time and the effects of bladder neck sparing during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, directly improving surgical standards and clinical outcomes.Furthermore, Dr. Yılmaz has been involved in major research projects, including those supported by TÜBİTAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey), focusing on novel treatments for conditions like Peyronie’s disease and bladder outlet obstruction. His involvement as a member of elite international organizations, including the European Association of Urology (EAU) and the American Urological Association (AUA), solidifies his stature as a specialist deeply engaged in global knowledge sharing and the establishment of best practices. Through this dedication to research and his role in training future urologists, Dr. Yılmaz ensures that the diagnostics and advanced treatments he provides are continuously aligned with the most current and highest evidence-based standards in modern urology.
