About
Paige Wallner is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes in robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), with a particular focus on reducing postoperative complications. Her key research areas include surgical technique optimization, hernia prevention, and minimally invasive oncology. Wallner’s major contribution is her investigation into how specimen extraction site selection—specifically the Pfannenstiel incision—can significantly lower the incidence of extraction site hernias after RARP. Her most-cited paper, published in 2025, has already garnered 2 citations, signaling early impact in a field where even small improvements in technique can dramatically enhance patient recovery. By identifying risk factors and advocating for alternative extraction approaches, Wallner is helping to refine the standard of care for thousands of men undergoing robotic prostatectomy. Her work bridges the gap between surgical innovation and practical, patient-centered outcomes, making her a rising voice in urologic oncology. For students and researchers, Wallner exemplifies how focused, evidence-based inquiry can directly translate into better surgical practices and reduced morbidity.
