About
F. Dibitetto is a pioneering urological surgeon whose research focuses on advancing robotic-assisted surgical techniques, particularly in prostate cancer treatment. His major contributions center on comparative analyses of robotic platforms, notably the da Vinci and Versius Surgical Systems, for extraperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (eRARP). In his landmark 2024 study, which has already garnered 11 citations, Dibitetto provided the first comparative analysis of these two systems, demonstrating that the Versius platform offers a compelling alternative to the established da Vinci system, with comparable perioperative outcomes and potential advantages in cost and ergonomics. His single-center experience with the Versius system, cited 5 times, further validates the feasibility and safety of this emerging technology. Dibitetto’s work is instrumental in shaping the future of minimally invasive urological surgery, offering evidence that expands surgical options and improves patient care. His research not only highlights technical innovations but also addresses practical challenges in robotic surgery adoption, making him a key figure in the evolution of robotic-assisted urology.
