About
Anne Y. Warren is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the understanding and practice of minimally invasive surgery for prostate cancer, particularly robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP). Based at a UK regional tertiary referral centre, Warren has been instrumental in establishing and refining robotic surgical techniques, contributing to landmark multinational research comparing surgical margin rates across nearly 22,400 open, laparoscopic, and robotic prostatectomy patients — a study that has garnered over 150 citations and remains a foundational reference in the field. Her early work documenting the learning curves of robotic prostatectomy from a single UK centre helped shape training frameworks for emerging surgeons. Warren's research extends beyond prostate cancer to include post-chemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissection and the application of active surveillance guidelines in unscreened populations. More recently, she has explored technical refinements such as the Retzius-sparing approach and incremental surgical modifications that improve functional outcomes without compromising oncological control. Through over a decade of prospective outcome tracking across 1,500+ consecutive cases, Warren's contributions have meaningfully influenced both surgical training and patient care standards in uro-oncology.
