About

Dr. Imad Bentellis is a French urological surgeon whose research centers on advancing robotic-assisted surgery for complex urologic conditions, particularly kidney cancer and neurogenic bladder. His major contributions include pioneering work on optimizing partial nephrectomy techniques, notably through the UROCCR 58 study (17 citations), which compared oncological outcomes of on-clamp versus off-clamp hilar control during robotic partial nephrectomy. He also led the MARGINS study (14 citations), providing critical insights into the prognostic impact of positive surgical margins after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy. In neurogenic bladder management, Dr. Bentellis conducted seminal comparisons of extracorporeal versus intracorporeal urinary diversion during robotic cystectomy (14 citations), helping refine surgical approaches for this challenging patient population. His work extends to vesicovaginal fistula repair and health economics, including a notable medico-economic analysis of robotic surgery implementation in France (5 citations). With over 60 cumulative citations across his most-cited works, Dr. Bentellis has established himself as a key figure in French robotic urology, contributing to multicenter UROCCR collaborative studies that shape evidence-based surgical practice. His research consistently addresses practical clinical questions, from outpatient management eligibility (SAFE study) to outcomes in older patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.
