About
Dr. Giulia Primiceri is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing robotic-assisted kidney surgery, with a particular focus on optimizing functional outcomes for patients undergoing partial nephrectomy. Her major contributions stem from the landmark CLOCK randomized controlled trial (NCT02287987), which rigorously compared on‑clamp versus off‑clamp robot‑assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). Her most cited paper (103 citations) from that trial demonstrated that off‑clamp RAPN offers superior preservation of renal function, while subsequent analyses (55 and 43 citations) confirmed its safety and identified predictors for transitioning between techniques. Dr. Primiceri has also investigated the role of warm ischemia time on renal recovery using radionuclide scans, and she has explored outcomes for larger renal masses and the management of post‑prostatectomy incontinence. Her work on institutional teaching status and perioperative outcomes further underscores her commitment to improving surgical quality. With over 250 total citations, Dr. Primiceri’s research has directly shaped evidence‑based guidelines for nephron‑sparing surgery, making her a pivotal figure in the evolution of robotic urologic oncology.
