About
Fabiana Nascimben is a pediatric urologist whose research focuses on optimizing surgical management for children with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). Her major contributions center on comparative effectiveness studies that directly inform clinical decision-making for moderate- to high-grade VUR. Her most cited work, a 2024 international cost-effectiveness analysis, rigorously compares endoscopic injection versus anti-reflux surgery (ureteral reimplantation) for children with grade III–V VUR. This multicenter retrospective study addresses a critical gap in pediatric urology: the absence of evidence-based guidelines for selecting the best therapeutic approach in this population. By evaluating both clinical outcomes and economic factors, Nascimben’s research provides actionable data for surgeons and families navigating treatment choices. Her work has already garnered attention within the field, with this key paper accumulating 3 citations shortly after publication—a strong early impact indicator. Nascimben’s contributions are particularly valuable for trainees and clinicians seeking clarity on complex surgical decisions in pediatric urology, and her ongoing research promises to further refine standards of care for children with VUR.
