About
Ingmar Wolff is a leading urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on optimizing surgical outcomes for prostate cancer patients, with a particular focus on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). His major contributions include the landmark MASTER study, a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing RARP to Retzius-sparing techniques, which has garnered 83 citations and helped define best practices in minimally invasive surgery. Wolff also led the multicenter IMPROVE study, demonstrating that patients experience significantly less regret after choosing robot-assisted surgery over open radical prostatectomy—a critical patient-reported outcome. His research further explores the use of peritoneal interposition flaps to reduce symptomatic lymphoceles after pelvic lymph node dissection, with meta-analyses confirming consistent benefits. With over 100 total citations across his most-cited works, Wolff has shaped evidence-based guidelines in urologic oncology. Notably, his work extends to surgeon satisfaction and certification standards, as seen in studies on German urological senior physicians and the benefits of certified prostate cancer centers. His research consistently prioritizes patient-centered outcomes, making him a key figure in advancing both surgical technique and quality of life in prostate cancer care.
