About
Naveen Kachroo is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical techniques for prostate cancer, with a particular focus on optimizing oncologic control while preserving functional outcomes. His most notable contribution is the development and rigorous evaluation of the precision prostatectomy procedure, a nerve-sparing surgical approach designed to minimize side effects like incontinence and erectile dysfunction without compromising cancer clearance. As lead author of the pivotal IDEAL Stage 1–2b study published in 2021, Kachroo provided the first comprehensive description of this technique, reporting both surgical methodology and long-term functional and oncologic results. This work, which has garnered 27 citations, has helped establish a new standard for balancing cancer eradication with quality of life. Beyond this landmark study, Kachroo’s broader research portfolio includes investigations into robotic-assisted surgery, patient-reported outcomes, and comparative effectiveness in urologic oncology. His contributions have been recognized through invited lectures and collaborative roles in multicenter trials, positioning him as a key voice in the movement toward more personalized, function-preserving prostate cancer surgery.
