About
Rabia Boulahssass is a geriatric oncology researcher whose work bridges the critical gap between aging and cancer care. Her research focuses on optimizing surgical and oncological outcomes for older patients, particularly through minimally invasive techniques. Her most-cited study, "Robot assisted radical prostatectomy in fit older patients compared to a standard population," demonstrates that carefully selected older adults can achieve comparable clinical, surgical, oncological, and functional outcomes to younger patients—a finding that challenges age-based treatment biases. With a growing citation footprint, Boulahssass’s work provides evidence-based support for personalized treatment decisions in geriatric oncology, emphasizing that biological fitness, not chronological age, should guide surgical candidacy. Her contributions are vital for clinicians seeking to expand access to advanced surgical options for the aging population, and her research continues to shape guidelines for prostate cancer management in older adults.
