About

Denise Squecco is a urologic surgeon whose work centers on improving functional outcomes following robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP), particularly the recovery of urinary continence. Her most cited study, “Effect of puboprostatic ligament reconstruction on continence recovery after robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy: our initial experience,” reports on a surgical technique that enhances early postoperative continence. With 25 citations, this work has contributed to a growing body of evidence refining nerve-sparing and reconstructive approaches in robotic prostate surgery. Squecco’s research addresses a critical quality-of-life concern for prostate cancer patients, bridging oncologic control with functional preservation. Her findings offer practical guidance for surgeons seeking to reduce incontinence—a common and distressing complication—after RALP. By systematically evaluating anatomical reconstruction, she has helped advance patient-centered outcomes in minimally invasive urologic oncology. Squecco’s work continues to influence clinical protocols and training in robotic prostatectomy, underscoring her commitment to improving recovery and long-term well-being for men undergoing treatment for localized prostate cancer.
