About
Kim Entezari is a leading researcher in urologic oncology, with a primary focus on thromboembolic complications in prostate cancer surgery. Her landmark 2007 multi-institutional study, which has garnered 146 citations, was among the first to systematically characterize the incidence and risk factors of symptomatic deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in patients undergoing laparoscopic or robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. This work provided critical evidence that helped shape perioperative prophylaxis protocols and improved patient safety in minimally invasive prostate cancer surgery. Beyond this seminal contribution, Entezari's research has advanced understanding of surgical outcomes and postoperative complications in urologic malignancies. Her work continues to influence clinical guidelines and has been widely cited by surgeons and oncologists seeking to balance the benefits of minimally invasive techniques with the need for effective thromboprophylaxis. Through her rigorous clinical investigations, Entezari has established herself as an authority on venous thromboembolism prevention in urologic surgery, making her research essential reading for clinicians and trainees in the field.
