About
Dr. Giuseppe Palermo is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose work is reshaping the landscape of robotic-assisted surgery. His primary research focuses on the clinical validation and comparative effectiveness of novel surgical robotic platforms, particularly the Hugo™ RAS system, for the treatment of prostate and bladder cancers. Dr. Palermo’s major contributions include the first comprehensive series of 132 robot-assisted radical prostatectomies using the Hugo™ RAS platform, demonstrating its safety and feasibility with 23 citations. He has also led critical propensity score-matched comparisons between Hugo™ RAS and the established daVinci system, with papers garnering 21 and 8 citations, showing equivalent oncological and functional outcomes at one year. His work extends to radical cystectomy, where he assessed trifecta and pentafecta success rates (22 citations), and to female sexual function after bladder cancer treatment. Notably, his 2022 paper on Hugo™ RAS system description and docking settings, though retracted, accumulated 68 citations, underscoring its early influence. Dr. Palermo’s research is vital for guiding the adoption of next-generation robotic technologies, ultimately improving surgical precision and patient quality of life.
