About
Pushkar’ Diu is a leading figure in oncourology, whose work centers on advancing surgical outcomes for prostate cancer through robotic technology. His major contributions lie in the long-term evaluation of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), where he has systematically compared its oncological and functional results against traditional open surgery. Notably, his 10-year comparative analysis demonstrates RARP’s sustained efficacy, helping to solidify it as a gold-standard treatment for localized prostate cancer. With a cumulative citation count of 15 across his most-cited papers, Diu’s research has shaped clinical practice, particularly in Russia. He has also pioneered the study of postoperative quality of life, identifying key predictors of urinary incontinence—a critical concern for patients—through single-center studies. Beyond prostate cancer, his work on post-radiation genitourinary fistulae addresses complex complications from pelvic radiotherapy. As a clinician at the A.I. Evdokimov Moscow State University of Medicine and Dentistry, Diu is recognized for integrating digital surgical innovations into routine care, emphasizing how robotic systems save lives by enhancing precision and recovery. His research continues to guide surgeons in optimizing patient selection and surgical technique.
