About
Dr. Anna M. Guzman is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced surgical techniques for prostate cancer, with a particular focus on improving patient quality of life. Her primary research areas include robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy, urinary continence recovery, and reconstructive urology. Dr. Guzman’s most notable contribution is her pioneering work on posterior rhabdosphincter reconstruction, a technique designed to expedite the return of urinary control after prostate removal. Her landmark Phase II randomized clinical trial, published in 2011 and cited over 76 times, provided rigorous evidence that this reconstruction can improve early continence outcomes, establishing a new standard in surgical practice. This study is widely recognized as a foundational reference for surgeons seeking to minimize post-operative side effects. Beyond this trial, Dr. Guzman has been instrumental in refining robotic surgical protocols and mentoring the next generation of urologists. Her research continues to shape evidence-based approaches that balance oncologic efficacy with functional preservation, making her a respected voice in the field of urologic oncology.
