About
Michal Grepl is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly robot-assisted procedures for prostate and kidney cancers. His most impactful contribution is the development and clinical validation of the Advanced Reconstruction of Vesicourethral Support (ARVUS) technique during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. In a landmark two-group randomised controlled trial, Grepl demonstrated that ARVUS significantly improves one-year functional outcomes, notably in early continence recovery, without compromising oncologic safety. This study, cited 77 times, has influenced surgical practice by offering a reproducible method to enhance post-prostatectomy quality of life. Grepl also contributes to the field of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), co-authoring a Czech-language series detailing his team’s experience with over 100 cases, achieving low complication rates and effective tumor control. His work bridges rigorous surgical innovation with practical, patient-centered outcomes, making him a key figure in robotic urology. With a focus on functional preservation and technical refinement, Grepl’s research continues to shape standards in urologic oncology.
