About

Dr. Armen Derboghossians is a urologic surgeon whose research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes in robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), particularly within community-based and teaching hospital settings. His most cited work, "Impact of surgical case order on perioperative outcomes for robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy" (27 citations), provides critical insights into how the sequence of surgical cases can influence patient outcomes, a practical consideration for high-volume robotic programs. Dr. Derboghossians also investigates the role of surgical education, as seen in his study on "Impact of trainee involvement with robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy" (7 citations), which examines how resident participation affects perioperative metrics. Additionally, his work on "Achieving proficiency with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: Laparoscopic-trained versus robotics-trained surgeons" (3 citations) addresses the nuances of surgical training pathways, offering valuable guidance for program implementation and credentialing. Through these contributions, Dr. Derboghossians has helped refine best practices in robotic urologic surgery, balancing efficiency, education, and patient safety. His research is particularly relevant for surgeons and institutions seeking to establish or improve robotic surgery programs, making him a thoughtful voice in the ongoing evolution of minimally invasive urologic oncology.
