About

Matteo Vittori is a rising star in robotic urologic oncology, whose work is reshaping how surgeons approach kidney and prostate cancer. His research centers on refining minimally-invasive techniques—particularly robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP)—to improve patient outcomes and accelerate recovery. Vittori’s most impactful contribution is his 2023 systematic review on resection techniques during RPN, which has already garnered 56 citations and serves as a key reference for optimizing tumor excision. He has also pioneered the “Robotic Off-Clamp Simple Enucleation Single-Layer Renorrhaphy” (ROSS) technique, demonstrating in his initial 13-cited case series how young surgeons can safely perform complex nephrectomies. In prostate cancer, Vittori has made a significant mark by investigating how preoperative prostatic shape influences urinary continence recovery after RARP—a topic explored in two of his highly-cited papers (19 and 5 citations). His multicenter analysis on this subject, involving ten referral centers, underscores his ability to lead large-scale collaborative studies. With over 100 total citations and a focus on practical, technique-driven innovations, Vittori is a researcher to watch for anyone interested in the future of robotic surgery.
