About
Carter Mikesell has emerged as a prominent figure in minimally invasive urological surgery, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted techniques for prostate and kidney cancer treatment. His research centers on single-port (SP) robotic surgery, comparative surgical outcomes, and optimizing patient selection for complex urological procedures. Mikesell's most influential contributions examine the evolving debate between single-port and multiport robotic platforms for radical prostatectomy. His 2023 work on transvesical robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (29 citations) and his propensity score-matched analyses comparing SP and multiport approaches (27 citations) have provided critical evidence guiding surgeons in platform selection. Notably, his investigations into perioperative complications, early continence predictors, and outpatient SP prostatectomy candidacy demonstrate a comprehensive commitment to improving patient recovery and surgical safety. Beyond prostatectomy, Mikesell has contributed meaningfully to robotic partial nephrectomy research, developing novel nomograms and patient selection algorithms — including collaborative work through the Single Port Advanced Robotic Consortium — to standardize decision-making across institutions. His study on partial nephrectomy outcomes in solitary kidney patients further underscores his dedication to high-risk populations. Collectively accumulating over 118 citations in just a few years, Mikesell's work is rapidly shaping the future of precision robotic urology.
