About
Paolo Geretto is a pioneering figure in functional urology and neurourology, with a particular focus on advancing robot-assisted surgical techniques for complex urinary disorders. His research bridges the gap between minimally invasive technology and the management of neurogenic bladder dysfunction, a field that has traditionally relied on open or laparoscopic approaches. Geretto's most cited work, "Opening the Horizons of Functional Urology and Neurourology to Robot-assisted Surgery" (2023, 11 citations), serves as a landmark review that systematically outlines the feasibility and potential of robotic platforms in treating conditions such as urinary incontinence and bladder augmentation. He further demonstrates clinical innovation in his detailed case report on totally intracorporeal robot-assisted supratrigonal cystectomy with ileal augmentation cystoplasty and periprostatic artificial urinary sphincter implantation (4 citations), a highly complex procedure for male neurogenic mixed urinary incontinence. By integrating reconstructive and prosthetic urology within a single robotic setting, Geretto has expanded the therapeutic arsenal for patients with severe neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction. His work not only highlights technical mastery but also underscores a commitment to improving quality of life through tailored, minimally invasive solutions. As a rising voice in functional urology, Geretto's contributions are shaping the next generation of surgical care for challenging urological conditions.
