About
Arnauld Villers is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose research has fundamentally advanced the treatment of prostate and kidney cancers. His primary contributions lie in the development and refinement of minimally invasive robotic surgical techniques, with a particular focus on organ-sparing procedures. Villers is internationally recognized for leading the first clinical investigation of a novel robotic system for single-port urologic surgery, a landmark study published in 2014 that has garnered 280 citations and opened new frontiers in scarless surgery. He has also been instrumental in defining contemporary techniques for robot-assisted prostatectomy (124 citations), and has championed the innovative concept of partial prostatectomy for anterior cancers, demonstrating promising short-term oncologic and functional outcomes. Beyond the operating room, his work extends to salvage stereotactic body radiation therapy for local recurrence after prostatectomy, and he has contributed critical data on partial nephrectomy outcomes from national prospective studies. With over 700 citations across his most influential works, Villers’ research consistently pushes the boundaries of precision, functional preservation, and minimally invasive care in urologic oncology.
