About
Alessandro Morlacco is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgery for prostate, kidney, and pelvic floor disorders. His major contributions include landmark multicenter studies demonstrating that robotic salvage radical prostatectomy offers improved functional outcomes and lower complication rates compared to open approaches for recurrent prostate cancer—work that has garnered over 90 citations. He has also systematically evaluated the safety and efficacy of new multiport robotic platforms, contributing to the field’s understanding of emerging technologies. Morlacco’s research on lymphocele prevention strategies and surgical safety protocols during robotic partial nephrectomies has directly influenced clinical practice. With multiple studies exceeding 40 citations, his impact is evident in shaping perioperative and oncological benchmarks. Notably, his work on the Vesica Patavina technique for intracorporeal neobladder construction represents an innovative step in robotic cystectomy. Morlacco’s commitment to rigorous, multicenter evidence has made him a key voice in the evolution of robotic urology.
