About

Dr. Eleonora Saqer is a distinguished urologic surgeon whose research centers on advancing robotic-assisted surgical techniques for complex prostate cancer cases, with a particular focus on high-risk patient populations and surgical safety. Her most cited work, "Complications of extraperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in high-risk prostate cancer: A single high-volume center experience" (2023, 19 citations), provides critical insights into the safety and efficacy of the extraperitoneal approach for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in high-risk prostate cancer patients. This study addresses a significant gap in the literature, as outcomes for the transperitoneal approach have been extensively documented, but data on the extraperitoneal method in this challenging cohort remained limited. Dr. Saqer's findings from a high-volume center demonstrate that the extraperitoneal technique is both safe and effective in selected high-risk patients, offering valuable guidance for surgical decision-making. Her work contributes to the ongoing debate surrounding RARP's role in aggressive disease, helping to refine patient selection and improve perioperative outcomes. Through her focused research on surgical complications and technique optimization, Dr. Saqer is making meaningful contributions to the field of urologic oncology.
