About
Kartik Sharma is a urologic oncologist whose research focuses on improving outcomes in prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment, particularly through the lens of surgical pathology and postoperative quality of life. His most cited work investigates discrepancies in Gleason scoring between needle core biopsies and radical prostatectomy specimens, a critical issue in ensuring accurate cancer grading and appropriate treatment planning. By correlating these pathological findings with clinical and pathological staging, Sharma has highlighted the limitations of biopsy sampling and the importance of whole-gland assessment for precise risk stratification. In a complementary study, he examined factors influencing urinary continence recovery following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), addressing a key concern for patients undergoing surgery. His work identifies variables that predict faster return to continence, directly impacting patient counseling and postoperative care protocols. With over 8 citations across his key publications, Sharma’s contributions bridge the gap between pathological accuracy and functional recovery, offering practical insights for urologists and oncologists. His research underscores the need for integrated approaches in prostate cancer management, from diagnosis to survivorship.
