About

Dr. Giorgia Granelli is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical techniques and diagnostic strategies for prostate cancer, with a particular focus on improving patient quality of life. Her primary research areas include Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) and the integration of multiparametric MRI in prostate cancer management. Dr. Granelli’s major contributions demonstrate how preserving anatomical structures during surgery can significantly enhance urinary continence recovery, even in complex cases such as patients with prior trans-urethral resection of the prostate or those requiring adjuvant radiation therapy. Her 2023 study on RS-RARP after previous TURP (16 citations) provides critical evidence that this nerve-sparing approach remains safe and effective, while her work on continence outcomes post-radiation (3 citations) offers valuable guidance for multimodal treatment planning. In her widely-read 2020 narrative review (8 citations), she articulated how multiparametric MRI is revolutionizing prostate cancer diagnosis, predicting that MRI-targeted biopsy would become the new standard. Dr. Granelli’s research bridges the gap between surgical innovation and evidence-based practice, directly impacting how clinicians balance oncologic control with functional preservation.
