About
Othmane Elhouadfi is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques and improving perioperative care in urological oncology. His most cited paper, a 2022 systematic review on the safety and feasibility of same-day discharge after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, has garnered 23 citations and represents a significant contribution to the evolving paradigm of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) for prostate cancer patients. By synthesizing evidence on outpatient radical prostatectomy, Elhouadfi has helped challenge traditional hospitalization norms, demonstrating that select patients can safely undergo this complex procedure without overnight admission—a shift that reduces healthcare costs and improves patient satisfaction. His research sits at the intersection of surgical innovation, patient safety, and health system efficiency, offering practical insights for urologists seeking to implement same-day discharge protocols. Beyond this landmark review, Elhouadfi’s broader work explores outcomes in robotic and laparoscopic urologic surgery, with an emphasis on evidence-based standardization. His contributions are particularly valuable for trainees and clinicians navigating the transition toward value-based, patient-centered care in urology.
