About
Alessandro Natali is a urological researcher whose work centers on male infertility and post-surgical erectile dysfunction, with a particular focus on the intersection of congenital anomalies and surgical outcomes. His most cited paper (22 citations) provides a critical case presentation of Zinner syndrome, an uncommon cause of male infertility resulting from ejaculatory duct obstruction, demonstrating how seminal tract blockage can lead to secretory testicular injury and azoospermia. This contribution has helped clarify diagnostic pathways for clinicians facing low seminal volume presentations. Dr. Natali has also made significant contributions to post-prostatectomy rehabilitation, including a study on topical alprostadil for erectile dysfunction after non-nerve-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (7 citations) and a prospective multicenter trial comparing avanafil 200 mg to sildenafil 100 mg following nerve-sparing procedures (5 citations). His comparative work on second-generation PDE5 inhibitors offers practical guidance for optimizing pharmacological recovery after robotic surgery. Through these focused clinical studies, Dr. Natali advances evidence-based management of both congenital and iatrogenic male reproductive health challenges.
