About

Mauro Foti is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing surgical techniques for prostate cancer treatment, particularly through robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. His most notable contribution is the comparative study of Retzius-sparing versus standard robot-assisted radical prostatectomy for clinically localized prostate cancer, a 2022 publication that has garnered 22 citations. This research addresses a critical challenge in urologic oncology: balancing oncologic control with functional outcomes, such as urinary continence and erectile function. By evaluating the Retzius-sparing approach, which preserves the anterior support structures of the bladder and urethra, Foti has helped refine surgical protocols that may reduce postoperative complications and improve patients' quality of life. His work is part of a broader effort to personalize surgical interventions based on tumor characteristics and patient anatomy. With a focus on evidence-based practice, Foti's studies contribute to the growing body of literature that guides clinicians in selecting optimal surgical strategies. His research is particularly relevant for urologists and oncologists seeking to minimize the long-term side effects of prostate cancer surgery while maintaining effective cancer control.
