About
Evangelos Fragkiadis is a urologic surgeon whose work bridges the frontiers of robotic surgery, oncologic treatment, and rare disease documentation. His research centers on the application of the da Vinci surgical system in urology, with particular focus on robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy (RARPLND) for testicular cancer—a systematic review that has garnered 27 citations and helped define the evidence base for this minimally invasive approach. Fragkiadis has also contributed to the refinement of robotic techniques through case reports on partial nephrectomy combined with cholecystectomy and the management of rare complications like pigtail catheter misplacement during robot-assisted pyeloplasty. Beyond technical innovation, he has examined how economic crises shape surgical practice, documenting the adoption of robotic systems in Greece’s public hospitals. His work extends to rare urologic pathologies, including a highly cited case of *Dioctophyma renale* mimicking renal cancer (30 citations) and a systematic review of primary prostatic paraganglioma. Notably, Fragkiadis has championed global surgical education through live streaming of robotic procedures from leading centers, enabling real-time teaching across borders. His diverse portfolio—from parasitic infections to cutting-edge robotics—demonstrates a commitment to advancing both surgical precision and the dissemination of knowledge.
