About

Francesco Paolo Calace is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing the surgical management of prostate cancer, with a particular focus on optimizing outcomes from robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). His most impactful contribution, a 2024 study on Ga68-PSMA PET for lymph node staging in intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer patients, has already garnered 23 citations, underscoring its significance in refining preoperative imaging to better detect nodal involvement and guide surgical planning. In a complementary 2025 literature review, Calace systematically evaluated technical modifications in RARP designed to accelerate early continence recovery, addressing a critical quality-of-life concern for patients. His research bridges the gap between cutting-edge diagnostic imaging and surgical technique, aiming to improve both oncologic control and functional preservation. Calace’s work is notable for its practical, patient-centered focus, offering evidence-based strategies that directly impact clinical decision-making and postoperative recovery. For students and researchers, his contributions exemplify how integrating advanced imaging with refined surgical methods can elevate the standard of care in prostate cancer treatment.
