Dr Wei Phin Tan

Wei Phin Tan, MD, MHS is an assistant professor of urology and a urologic oncologist at Tisch Hospital, New York University Langone Health in New York City . He completed his urology residency at Rush University Medical Center and his urologic oncology fellowship at Duke University. He also completed a Masters of Health Science at Duke University.

Dr Tan’s research interest focuses on malignancies of the genitourinary system, with a particular emphasis on (i) prostate cancer diagnostics, (ii) focal therapy for prostate cancer and (iii) robotic assisted surgery (prostatectomies, nephrectomies, partial nephrectomies, cystectomies with intracorporeal reservoirs, retroperitoneal lymph node dissection).

Disease Treated

Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is a condition in which cells in the prostate, a small walnut-shaped gland that produces seminal fluid.

Kidney Cancer

Kidney cancer, or renal cell cancer, occurs when abnormal cells in the kidneys grow uncontrollably.

Bladder Cancer

Bladder cancer is a condition in which abnormal cells in the bladder, the organ that stores urine, grow uncontrollably.

Testicular Cancer

Testicular cancer is a type of cancer that originates in the testicles, which are the male reproductive glands.

Services

Transperineal MRI/US Fusion Biopsy

A transperineal prostate biopsy is a procedure used to obtain tissue samples from the prostate gland for diagnostic purposes. Unlike the more common transrectal prostate biopsy, which involves inserting a biopsy needle through the rectum to access the prostate, a transperineal biopsy accesses the prostate through the perineum, which is the area between the scrotum and the anus.

SpaceOAR™ and Barrigel

SpaceOAR™ Hydrogel is an absorbable, injectable gel that assists in reducing the radiation dose delivered to the rectum in men undergoing radiation therapy for prostate cancer, thereby decreasing the likelihood of side effects.

Focal Therapy

A targeted treatment approach designed to treat specific areas of cancer within the prostate while preserving healthy tissue. This minimally invasive procedure aims to treat localized tumors without the need for complete prostate removal. Techniques such as high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or cryoablation are often employed to precisely target and destroy cancerous cells, thereby reducing the risk of side effects such as urinary leakage and erectile dysfunction, which are associated with more aggressive treatments.

Robotic Surgery

A minimally invasive surgical technique where a surgeon controls a robotic system equipped with precise instruments to perform procedures through small incisions. The robotic system enhances surgical precision and maneuverability, allowing for improved dexterity and reduced patient trauma.

Cystoscopy

Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) is a surgical procedure commonly used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that can cause urinary symptoms.
