About

Roman Mayr is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for complex reconstructive and oncologic kidney and ureteral surgery. His major contributions center on the refinement of robotic-assisted procedures, particularly for challenging conditions like long proximal ureteral strictures and upper tract urothelial carcinoma. In a landmark two-center comparison, Mayr demonstrated that both open and robotic ureteroplasty with a buccal mucosa onlay graft achieve high success rates, with the robotic approach significantly reducing intraoperative blood loss—a finding that has garnered 13 citations and is shaping practice for complex ureteral reconstruction. He is also leading the ROPARN feasibility trial, a randomized controlled study comparing retroperitoneal versus transperitoneal robot-assisted partial nephrectomy, which has already attracted 9 citations for its potential to improve peri-operative outcomes. Additionally, through the Junior ERUS/YAU Working Group, Mayr has contributed multicenter data on robot-assisted radical nephroureterectomy for locally advanced disease, further establishing his role in advancing robotic urologic oncology. His work is directly informing surgical decision-making and training for the next generation of urologic surgeons.
