About
Dr. Paul Patroi is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), particularly in patients with large prostate glands. His major contributions lie in directly comparing the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) and endoscopic enucleation techniques, such as Thulium laser enucleation (ThuLEP). His highly cited 2022 systematic review and meta-analysis (30 citations) provided crucial clarity on the comparative outcomes of these two modern approaches, helping to guide clinical decision-making. In a subsequent 2023 propensity score-matched analysis (6 citations), Dr. Patroi further refined this comparison by evaluating perioperative outcomes at a tertiary care center, demonstrating his commitment to evidence-based surgical innovation. His work is notable for addressing a key clinical dilemma—determining the optimal, least-invasive procedure for large prostates—and for employing rigorous comparative methodologies. Dr. Patroi’s research directly shapes urological practice, offering surgeons and patients clearer data on recovery, complication rates, and functional results in the evolving landscape of BPH surgery.
