About
Dr. D. Garrou is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on refining robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and partial nephrectomy (RAPN) to improve patient outcomes. His most significant contribution is the development and validation of the total anatomical reconstruction (TAR) technique during RARP, demonstrated in a landmark study of over 1,000 procedures (57 citations), which dramatically enhances early urinary continence recovery. Dr. Garrou has also pioneered the use of chitosan membranes to protect neurovascular bundles during nerve-sparing RARP, showing a marked improvement in the return of sexual potency (15 citations). Beyond surgical technique, he has advanced prostate cancer diagnostics, proving that MRI-targeted biopsies significantly reduce the risk of Gleason score upgrading compared to standard biopsies (22 citations), and has demonstrated the feasibility of RAPN for highly complex renal tumors (53 citations). His work on 3D prostate MRI reconstruction to lower positive surgical margin rates further underscores his commitment to precision oncology. With a career dedicated to merging technical innovation with tangible functional recovery, Dr. Garrou’s research directly shapes modern urologic practice.
