About
Georg Salomon is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally shaped the modern surgical management of prostate cancer. His primary research focus lies in refining radical prostatectomy techniques—both open and robot-assisted—to maximize oncologic control while preserving functional outcomes. Salomon’s most impactful contribution is the development and validation of the NeuroSAFE technique (Neurovascular Structure-adjacent Frozen-section Examination), which dramatically increases nerve-sparing rates and reduces positive surgical margins. His landmark 2012 study on NeuroSAFE, with over 280 citations, demonstrated its efficacy across more than 11,000 consecutive patients, establishing a new standard for precision in prostate cancer surgery. He has also led large-scale comparative studies, including a 10,790-patient analysis (113 citations) and a 15-year, 18,805-patient propensity-matched study, providing definitive evidence on outcomes between open and robot-assisted approaches. Beyond technique, Salomon has explored novel therapies, such as radical prostatectomy after vascular-targeted photodynamic therapy, and has investigated factors like blood loss and guideline adherence that influence surgical success. As a key figure at the Martini Clinic Prostate Cancer Center, his work continues to guide evidence-based practice in urologic oncology.
