About
Marco Montesi is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex kidney stone disease and renal oncology. His major contributions center on rigorous comparative effectiveness research, using advanced statistical methods like inverse probability treatment weighting and propensity-score matching to evaluate robotic and percutaneous approaches. In his landmark 2025 study on large renal stones, Montesi demonstrated that robotic pyelolithotomy offers a safer alternative to percutaneous nephrolithotomy, directly informing AUA and EAU guideline debates—a paper that has already garnered 9 citations shortly after publication. He has also pioneered health-economic assessments of next-generation robotic systems, providing crucial data for hospital adoption decisions. With additional work confirming the oncologic safety and perioperative benefits of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy, Montesi’s research bridges surgical innovation and evidence-based practice. His growing citation impact—including recent highly-cited work—positions him as a key voice in the transition toward more precise, cost-effective robotic urology.
