About
E. Montanari is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on optimizing surgical outcomes for kidney and prostate cancers, with a particular focus on minimally invasive techniques. Their major contributions include landmark prospective studies like the RECORd 2 Project, which rigorously compared perioperative outcomes of open, laparoscopic, and robotic partial nephrectomy (cited 131 times). Montanari developed a nomogram to predict postoperative complications after partial nephrectomy (29 citations) and investigated predictors of open conversion during minimally invasive procedures, enhancing surgical decision-making. Beyond oncology, they explored quality-of-life issues, examining depressive symptoms and low sexual desire after radical prostatectomy (33 citations). Their work also addresses systemic challenges, including the impact of COVID-19 on urology residency training (22 citations). With over 400 total citations, Montanari’s research provides evidence-based guidance for surgeons, improving patient care through risk stratification and comparative effectiveness studies. Their contributions are essential reading for urologists and researchers advancing surgical oncology.
