About
Claudia Zaccaro is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and pediatric urology. Her major contributions include pioneering studies on predicting and preventing symptomatic lymphocele after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and lymph node dissection—a critical complication that affects recovery. She has also compared outcomes of robotic simple prostatectomy versus HoLEP for large-volume BPH, providing evidence to guide treatment selection. In pediatric urology, she demonstrated that drainage placement may be safely omitted after robotic upper urinary tract reconstruction, reducing patient morbidity. Her research on simultaneous versus delayed penile prosthesis placement during RARP addresses sexual rehabilitation in men with preexisting erectile dysfunction, while her work on gender disparities in bladder cancer outcomes highlights differences in care. With over 50 citations across her most-cited papers, Zaccaro’s work is consistently published in high-impact urology journals and presented at international conferences. Her contributions are shaping best practices in robotic urologic surgery, improving both oncologic and functional outcomes for patients.
