About
Grazia Napoli is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical techniques for prostate cancer, particularly through robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. Her major contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility and safety of Retzius-sparing approaches in high-risk prostate cancer patients, a population traditionally considered less suitable for nerve-sparing procedures. In her landmark 2021 study, Napoli and her team reported outcomes from a large single-institution series, showing that Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy can achieve excellent oncologic control while preserving urinary continence and erectile function, even in aggressive disease. This work has reshaped clinical decision-making, expanding the pool of candidates who can benefit from functional preservation. With over three citations for this pivotal paper, Napoli’s research is gaining traction among urologists seeking to optimize surgical outcomes. Her dedication to refining minimally invasive techniques and improving quality of life for prostate cancer patients marks her as an emerging authority in robotic urologic oncology.
