About
Carlos Alberto Ricetto Sacomani is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving surgical outcomes in prostate cancer treatment, particularly through robotic-assisted techniques. His key research areas include the impact of patient factors on post-operative recovery and the management of complex surgical complications. Sacomani’s major contribution is his rigorous analysis of how obesity affects urinary continence after robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). In a high-impact propensity score matching study involving over 1,000 patients, he demonstrated that obesity is associated with worse continence outcomes—a finding that challenges assumptions and helps surgeons better counsel patients. This work has garnered 12 citations, establishing a foundation for risk-stratified surgical planning. He has also advanced the field with a novel, fully robotic approach to treating vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis, a challenging complication after open prostatectomy. His video-based publication on this technique provides a valuable resource for surgeons facing recalcitrant cases. By combining large-scale data analysis with innovative surgical solutions, Sacomani is shaping evidence-based practice in robotic urology, directly improving patient care and surgical decision-making.
