Martina Maggi

About

Dr. Martina Maggi is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on optimizing surgical management for kidney, bladder, and prostate cancers. Her major contributions include advancing evidence for nephron-sparing surgery in synchronous bilateral renal tumors—her 2023 scoping review (24 citations) is a key reference in this niche—and demonstrating how operative time and blood loss affect outcomes in radical prostatectomy (12 citations). She has also shaped perioperative care for upper tract urothelial carcinomas, analyzing systemic neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy trends in a 2021 study (23 citations). Notably, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Maggi authored a widely read paper (22 citations) on how the crisis could catalyze positive reforms in urology residency training. Her work on pudendal nerve neurolysis for entrapment (2024, 8 citations) and functional outcomes after orthotopic neobladder reconstruction (2022, 8 citations) further underscores her breadth. With over 130 total citations across her top papers, Dr. Maggi’s research directly informs clinical guidelines and surgical decision-making, making her a vital voice in modern urologic oncology and surgical education.
