About

Marco Borghesi is a prominent urological surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the fields of robotic surgery, kidney cancer management, and prostate cancer treatment. His research has been particularly influential in establishing best practices for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RARP) and nephron-sparing surgery, with landmark contributions to understanding how anatomical scoring systems like PADUA and R.E.N.A.L. predict surgical outcomes — a paper that has garnered 94 citations. Borghesi has made substantial contributions to prostate cancer care, demonstrating how multiparametric MRI can optimize nerve-sparing strategies during robotic prostatectomy (87 citations) and providing critical long-term data on survival, continence, and potency outcomes following RARP. His collaborative work through multicenter initiatives, including the Vattikuti GQI-RUS database and Italy's RECORd project, has helped define national standards for nephron-sparing surgery and partial nephrectomy complication management. With expertise spanning benign prostatic enlargement, pelvic lymph node dissection protocols, and surgical margin management in renal cell carcinoma, Borghesi's research portfolio reflects a comprehensive commitment to improving minimally invasive urological care. His cumulative citation impact underscores his growing influence within the international urology research community.
