Dr. Girish Kulkarni, a surgeon at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, performed a new robotic cystectomy this week. This surgery creates a neobladder, a new bladder constructed using the patient’s bowel, for those battling cancer. “Much of what we do at The Princess Margaret in terms of ground-breaking research is philanthropy-driven,” says Dr. Kulkarni.

We are the first to use a catheter-free device to monitor bladder dysfunction. It's based on technology developed by our own researchers in collaboration with researchers at Louis Stokes Cleveland VAMC and Case Western Reserve University. The sensor offers more comfortable testing for patients and more accurate data for physicians. “After observing standard urodynamic testing over the past 20 years, our vision for this device was to address the shortcomings in current bladder testing,” said Marg
