About
Giovanni Maria Fusco is a leading urological researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of metabolic health, oncology, and sexual function. His primary research areas include the impact of lipid metabolism on erectile dysfunction, particularly in prostate cancer patients undergoing robotic surgery. Fusco’s major contribution lies in pioneering the use of novel lipidic indices—such as the Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) and Castelli Risk Index I and II (CR-I/II)—to predict severe erectile dysfunction and postoperative outcomes. His most-cited work, "The role of lipidic balance on erectile dysfunction in prostate cancer patients undergoing robotic surgery" (2024), has garnered 2 citations and demonstrates how dyslipidemia markers can serve as predictive tools for functional recovery. This research bridges metabolic and urological health, offering clinicians actionable biomarkers to personalize patient counseling and rehabilitation. Fusco’s innovative approach highlights the systemic nature of erectile function, moving beyond traditional surgical factors to incorporate cardiovascular risk profiles. His work is particularly notable for its translational potential, directly informing preoperative assessments and postoperative care protocols in robotic prostatectomy.
