About
Evelinda Trindade has made pivotal contributions to evidence-based surgical oncology, with a particular focus on prostate cancer care. Her landmark randomized clinical trial comparing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) to open retropubic radical prostatectomy, published in 2024, is among the most cited works in the field, garnering 47 citations in a short period. This study directly addressed a critical gap in high-quality comparative evidence, rigorously assessing perioperative, oncological, and functional outcomes in a cohort of 354 men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer. Trindade’s work is distinguished by its methodological rigor—employing a randomized design where few existed—and its practical implications for surgical decision-making. Beyond this trial, her research spans surgical innovation, patient-reported outcomes, and the translation of clinical evidence into practice. Her impact is reflected not only in citation counts but in shaping contemporary debates around minimally invasive versus open surgery. Trindade’s contributions are essential reading for clinicians and researchers navigating the evolving landscape of prostate cancer treatment, offering clarity where uncertainty once prevailed.
