About

Andrea Fuschi is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical techniques for prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia. His major contributions include pioneering comparative studies that have reshaped clinical practice, most notably his landmark 2018 prospective randomized trial demonstrating that Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy significantly improves immediate continence rates compared to the standard approach—a study cited over 127 times. He has also conducted pivotal research on large-volume prostate glands, showing that Holmium laser enucleation is as effective as minimally invasive simple prostatectomy, with 55 citations. Fuschi’s innovative work extends to global health, including a 2023 study quantifying how laparoscopic versus robotic prostatectomy impacts climate change. He has published extensively on functional outcomes, patient satisfaction, and decision regret, with his EORTC quality-of-life questionnaire study predicting incontinence patterns. His recent investigations into single-port robotics in elderly patients and the relationship between urethral preservation and continence recovery further underscore his commitment to refining surgical precision and patient-centered care. With over 270 total citations, Fuschi is a recognized authority in robotic urologic oncology.
