About
Felice Crocetto is a pioneering surgeon and researcher whose work bridges pediatric urology and prostate cancer care. His primary contributions center on advancing minimally invasive surgery—particularly through the innovative use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging in laparoscopic and robotic procedures. His landmark 2020 paper on ICG-guided pediatric surgery (85 citations) established a new standard for real-time tissue visualization in children, while his follow-up work on near-infrared fluorescence applications (62 citations) expanded the technique's utility in pediatric urology. Crocetto has also made significant strides in prostate cancer diagnostics, demonstrating how biomarkers like 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine and 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α can assess oxidative stress following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (47 citations). His research on multiparametric MRI and biopsy concordance (47 citations) has refined prostate cancer detection protocols, and his comparative studies of robotic versus laparoscopic simple prostatectomy (9 citations) continue to shape surgical best practices. With over 350 total citations across his portfolio, Crocetto’s work is distinguished by its dual focus on pediatric and adult urology, consistently pushing the boundaries of image-guided, minimally invasive treatment.
