About
A.O. Vasilyev is a Russian urological oncologist whose research is centered on the surgical treatment of prostate cancer, with a particular focus on comparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and traditional radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP). Working within the Urology Clinic of the A.I. Evdokimov Moscow State University of Medicine and Dentistry, Vasilyev has made meaningful contributions to understanding both the functional and long-term oncological outcomes of these competing surgical approaches. His 2017 study comparing nerve-sparing techniques in experienced surgeons — each with over 1,000 prostatectomies — provided valuable insight into continence and potency recovery rates, earning 5 citations. Subsequent work examining 10-year oncological outcomes of RARP addresses a notable gap in the literature, where long-term data remain limited. Beyond surgical comparison, Vasilyev has engaged with broader public health challenges through his involvement in the Moscow program for early prostate cancer detection, demonstrating a commitment to improving population-level outcomes in Russia. Collectively, his body of work reflects a rigorous, clinically grounded effort to optimize prostate cancer care and advance urological surgery practice in the Russian medical context.
