About
Gabriele Montefusco is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical techniques in prostate cancer care, particularly through robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). His major contributions include refining the lateral approach for bladder neck dissection during RARP, demonstrating in a pair-matched analysis that this technique improves early urinary continence recovery while maintaining favorable surgical margin rates—a critical balance for oncologic and functional outcomes. He has also addressed the formidable challenges of salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy after primary radiation therapy, publishing a step-by-step tutorial that details strategies to prevent complications in this high-risk population. With his most-cited paper examining the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on uro-oncological outcomes at an Italian tertiary referral center (14 citations), Montefusco has shown a commitment to understanding how systemic disruptions affect patient care. His work, cited in leading urology journals, provides practical, evidence-based guidance for surgeons navigating complex prostate cancer cases, making him a valuable contributor to the field of minimally invasive urologic oncology.
