About
Peter Wiklund is a pioneering urological surgeon and researcher whose work has profoundly shaped the evidence base for robotic surgery in the treatment of prostate and bladder cancer. His research focuses on minimally invasive surgical techniques, comparative surgical outcomes, and the oncologic and functional results of robot-assisted procedures. Wiklund's landmark 2012 meta-analysis comparing prostatectomy approaches (516 citations) became a foundational reference for surgeons worldwide, while his 2015 prospective trial on urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction following robotic versus open prostatectomy (489 citations) provided some of the first high-grade clinical evidence favoring robotic approaches. His extensive contributions to robot-assisted radical cystectomy research — spanning systematic reviews, complication analyses, and urinary diversion techniques — collectively draw over 1,800 citations, establishing him as a global authority in this rapidly evolving field. As a key contributor to the International Robotic Cystectomy Consortium, Wiklund has helped define best practices across multiple institutions. His influential 2009 recommendations on robotic surgery credentialing further demonstrate his commitment to patient safety and surgical standards, making his body of work essential reading for any urologist or surgical researcher.
