About

Dr. Milton Borrelli is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose work has advanced the field of minimally invasive renal surgery, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted techniques. His key research areas include the surgical management of renal ptosis and the refinement of nephropexy procedures. Dr. Borrelli’s major contribution is his development and description of robot-assisted nephropexy, a novel approach that offers patients a less invasive alternative to traditional open surgery for correcting symptomatic kidney descent. His 2018 paper on the topic, while accumulating 2 citations, serves as a foundational technical note that introduces the procedure’s methodology and potential benefits, including reduced postoperative pain and faster recovery. This work represents a significant step in applying robotic precision to a rare but debilitating condition, helping to standardize treatment for chronic flank pain caused by renal ptosis. Dr. Borrelli’s dedication to surgical innovation continues to influence urologic practice, offering new hope for patients with this challenging diagnosis.
