About
Mattia Longoni is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive robotic techniques for the treatment of urologic cancers, particularly prostate and bladder cancer. His most significant contributions lie in refining and validating the Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) for high-risk prostate cancer patients. Through a large single-institution series (27 citations) and a multicentric study involving expert surgeons (17 citations), Longoni demonstrated that RS-RARP can achieve favorable oncological outcomes and superior urinary continence recovery, even in challenging cases and after prior transurethral resection of the prostate. He has also made impactful contributions to the comparative effectiveness of robotic versus open surgery for bladder and upper tract cancers, using large national databases to show improved in-hospital outcomes and, in a series of cost analyses, that robotic approaches can be cost-competitive. His work on intraoperative image-guidance (7 citations) explores the next frontier of surgical precision. With multiple papers published in 2024-2025, Longoni is an active voice shaping the evidence base for modern, patient-centered urologic oncology.
