About
N. Deffar is a urological surgeon whose research centers on functional outcomes and quality of life following prostate cancer surgery, with a particular focus on erectile function and partner sexuality. In his most-cited work, "Fonction érectile et sexualité des partenaires après prostatectomie totale robot-assistée versus laparoscopique manuelle : évaluation à long terme" (2012), Deffar conducted a long-term comparative evaluation of two surgical approaches—robot-assisted versus manual laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. His major contribution lies in examining not only the patient's erectile recovery but also the often-overlooked sexual well-being of their partners, providing a holistic perspective on post-treatment intimacy. While this study has garnered 2 citations, it represents a pioneering effort to integrate partner outcomes into surgical outcome research, a niche but meaningful area in urological oncology. Deffar's work underscores the importance of patient-centered care, highlighting that surgical success extends beyond oncological control to encompass relational and sexual health. His research offers valuable insights for clinicians and patients navigating treatment decisions, emphasizing the need for comprehensive long-term follow-up.
