About

Shantel Muldrew is a distinguished urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of robotic-assisted surgery, particularly in the management of prostate and kidney cancers. Her research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes for complex urologic conditions, with a major contribution being the study of salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for men with recurrent prostate cancer after prior treatment. In her seminal 2013 paper, cited 74 times, Muldrew and her team detailed the peri-operative outcomes, complications, and functional consequences of salvage RARP in 51 patients, providing critical insights that have guided clinical decision-making for this high-risk population. Additionally, her 2012 work on integrating robotic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) into existing robotic programs, with 7 citations, offers a practical framework for expanding robotic capabilities in kidney-sparing surgery. Muldrew’s research has been instrumental in demonstrating the feasibility and safety of advanced robotic techniques, influencing surgical protocols and training. Her work underscores a commitment to improving patient outcomes through innovation and evidence-based practice, making her a respected voice in urologic oncology.
