About
Nicolas Soputro is an emerging urological surgeon and researcher whose work has rapidly shaped the field of minimally invasive robotic surgery, with a particular focus on single-port (SP) robotic platforms for prostate cancer treatment. His research centers on advancing and validating novel surgical approaches—including transvesical, transperineal, and extraperitoneal techniques—using the purpose-built SP robotic system, positioning him at the forefront of next-generation robotic urology. Soputro's most significant contributions include pioneering studies on SP transvesical robot-assisted simple and radical prostatectomy, documenting surgical learning curves, perioperative safety profiles, and oncological outcomes across hundreds of cases. His propensity score-matched comparison of SP extraperitoneal versus multiport transperitoneal prostatectomy (27 citations) has provided critical evidence informing surgical decision-making. He has also contributed to broader landscape reviews and the Hugo™ RAS system's urological applications, demonstrating versatility across robotic platforms. With a cumulative citation count exceeding 220 across just ten papers published between 2023 and 2025, Soputro's scholarly output has achieved remarkable early impact. His involvement with the international SPARC Collaborative Group further underscores his growing influence within the global robotic surgery community.
