About
Dr. Mara Bacchiani is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing the surgical management of urologic cancers, with a particular focus on prostate and renal cell carcinoma. Her primary research areas include robot-assisted radical prostatectomy and partial nephrectomy, where she has made significant contributions to preoperative risk stratification and surgical decision-making. Notably, her 2023 study on the Watson Elementary® system for computer-aided diagnosis in prostate cancer, which has garnered 9 citations, represents a pioneering effort to integrate artificial intelligence into preoperative tumor characterization. Her 2024 investigation into the safety of deferring prostate cancer treatment, cited 6 times, provides critical evidence on the impact of surgical delay on pathological outcomes. Additionally, Dr. Bacchiani has developed the innovative "Urodynamic Trifecta" scoring system to standardize continence quality assessments following orthotopic ileal neobladder reconstruction, a novel achievement in functional outcome measurement. Her comprehensive narrative review on robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma, published in 2025, synthesizes best practices across diverse clinical scenarios. Through these contributions, Dr. Bacchiani is shaping evidence-based protocols that enhance both oncological and functional outcomes in minimally invasive urologic surgery.
