About
Dr. Peris Castaneda is a pioneering surgeon-researcher advancing the field of robotic surgery, with a primary focus on improving patient outcomes in complex urological and nephrological procedures. Her work centers on two critical areas: high-fidelity surgical simulation for resident training and comparative outcomes of robotic versus open surgery. Dr. Castaneda’s most impactful contribution is the development and validation of a high-fidelity simulation model for managing acute intraoperative hemorrhage during robot-assisted surgery (8 citations), a groundbreaking tool that enhances surgical safety and resident preparedness. She has also authored pivotal research comparing surgical outcomes of robotic bilateral nephrectomy versus open surgery in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), demonstrating the superiority of the robotic approach. Her 2025 study on this topic provides crucial data supporting minimally invasive techniques for this challenging patient population. Dr. Castaneda’s work bridges the gap between simulation-based education and clinical practice, directly improving surgical training and patient care. Her research has been recognized for its translational impact, offering evidence-based guidance for adopting robotic techniques in high-risk procedures.
