Dr Poh Beow Kiong

MB, BS (Singapore), MRCS (Edinburgh), M Med (Surgery)

Dr. Poh Beow Kiong is a board-certified consultant urologist accredited with The Singapore Medical Council Registry of Specialists (Urology). Dr. Poh practises at Mt Elizabeth Novena and Gleneagles Hospital. He also has admitting rights to Mt Elizabeth (Orchard), Mt Alvernia, and Parkway East Hospitals.

Dr. Poh specialises in advanced Minimally Invasive Surgery for urological cancers as well as advanced endourological techniques in Endourology.

Dr. Poh is a pioneer in Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer and now specialises in the da Vinci Robotic Radical Prostatectomy. Dr. Poh also utilises the latest da Vinci Xi system to perform kidney-sparing surgery for kidney tumors. This technique removes the need to sacrifice the whole kidney and yet achieve a good oncologic outcome.

Dr Poh is one of the few urologists who performs ultrasonic access of the kidney during PCNL (PERCUTANEOUS NEPHROLITHONOMY) for complex kidney stone diseases (eg staghorn calculi). This technique reduces the radiation exposure to the patient and has superior accuracy in targeting during access to the kidney.

For BPH (BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA), in addition to the various surgical modalities, Dr Poh is one of the few fellowship-trained urologist who performs the technically challenging Holmium Laser Enucleation of Prostate (HoLEP) procedure. This procedure allows the surgeon to completely enucleate large prostate adenomas with a fast post operative recovery and good functional outcomes.

Dr. Poh obtained his MBBS and Master’s in Surgery in Singapore. He was accepted into advanced specialist training in 2003. He was awarded the HMDP Scholarship to further his urology training in cancer and endourologic work in British Columbia, Canada, and University of Southern California, USA.

Kidney Cancer

 

 

Laparoscopic (MIS) Nephron Sparing Nephrectomy

 

Dr. Poh specializes in laparoscopic nephron-sparing nephrectomies for kidney tumors. In this technically challenging procedure, patients with kidney cancer no longer have to lose the entire kidney. With a keyhole approach, the tumor together with a rim of kidney tissue can be selectively resected. This can be achieved with good cancer control and an excellent post-operation recovery.

 

LESS Surgery: Laparoendoscopic Single-Site Surgery

Traditional laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery for kidney cancers is performed through 3-4 small ports (holes) to gain access to the kidney in the abdominal cavity. In LESS surgery, resection of the cancerous kidney can be performed through a single port. This improves the cosmetic results of the operation without compromising cancer control. In this centre, the LESS approach is also used in MIS adrenalectomy and kidney cysts excision.

Prostate Cancer

 

 

Laparoscopic Radical Retropubic Prostatectomy

 

Dr. Poh is one of the few urologists in Singapore who specializes in this technically challenging operation for prostate cancer. With this technique, good cancer control is attained with an expedient post-operation recovery. This is achieved with small keyhole incisions in the abdominal wall. A patient typically gets discharged from the hospital 2-3 days after the operation.

Bladder Cancer

 

Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor is performed under spinal anesthesia and the operation is done via an endoscope inserted through the urethra of the patient. The tumor in the bladder is then resected using PlasmakineticTM technology. Without an open wound, the post-operation recovery is good with a short hospital stay.

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy

 

This minimally invasive technique has been used successfully to remove large kidney stones with small surgical wounds. Dr Poh performs Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for kidney stones using the highly specialized hybrid ultrasound/fluoroscopic localization technique. To date he has performed more than 500 PCNLs, many of which involved patients with challenging anatomical deformities and complex stones.

Bipolar TURP (PlasmakineticTM ) – Transurethral Resection of Prostate

 

This is the traditional approach to surgically resect the enlarged prostate gland. It is associated with a short hospital stay and good post-operation results. In small and medium-sized prostate glands, it is still considered the gold-standard treatment in the surgical management of benign prostate enlargement.

HoLEP – Holmium Laser Enucleation of Prostate

 

This highly specialized technique is used to treat benign prostate enlargement. In big prostates, it has been shown to be superior to the traditional TURP. Dr Poh is one of the few urologists who has been fellowship-trained in this procedure and is one of the most experienced urologists in Singapore with this technique.
