About

Ergin Kilic is a distinguished urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the understanding of oncological outcomes in prostate cancer surgery. His primary research focus lies in the surgical management of prostate cancer, particularly through minimally invasive techniques such as laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP). Kilic’s major contribution is his long-term analysis of the impact of positive surgical margins on patient prognosis, a critical factor in determining recurrence and survival after prostatectomy. His landmark 2012 study, which has garnered 8 citations, provided essential insights into how margin status influences oncological outcomes over extended follow-up periods, helping to refine surgical techniques and postoperative management strategies. Beyond this core work, Kilic has contributed to the broader literature on urologic oncology, emphasizing the importance of meticulous surgical precision and patient selection. His research has informed clinical guidelines and improved risk stratification for prostate cancer patients, making him a respected voice in the field. For students and researchers, Kilic’s work underscores the vital link between surgical quality and long-term cancer control, offering a model of how rigorous clinical investigation can directly enhance patient care.
