About

Maximilian Peter Brandt is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive robotic surgery for complex urological conditions. His primary research areas include benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC), with a focus on comparing robot-assisted techniques to traditional open surgery. Brandt’s major contributions include demonstrating the feasibility and safety of robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) as an alternative to open simple prostatectomy for large prostates, a study that has garnered 49 citations. He also pioneered the first completely robot-assisted retroperitoneal nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff for UTUC, a step-by-step technique that avoids entering the peritoneum, earning 21 citations. His work extends to comparative studies on ureteral reimplantation and retroperitoneal versus transperitoneal approaches, with recent multicenter analyses. Brandt’s research has been cited over 87 times, reflecting its impact on surgical practice. Notably, his innovative retroperitoneal technique has been recognized as a significant advancement in reducing invasiveness and recovery time, positioning him as a key figure in the evolution of robotic urologic surgery.
