About
Sanket Chauhan is a prominent urological surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally shaped the understanding and standardization of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for prostate cancer treatment. With a research focus spanning robotic surgical techniques, outcomes reporting, and procedural innovation, Chauhan has contributed extensively to one of the most rapidly evolving fields in modern urology. Among his most influential contributions is the introduction of the "Pentafecta" concept (2011, 336 citations), a landmark framework for comprehensively evaluating RARP outcomes across five critical domains. His critical comparative review of retropubic, laparoscopic, and robot-assisted prostatectomy approaches (2010, 276 citations) became an essential reference for surgeons navigating surgical decision-making. Chauhan's work on posterior reconstruction techniques, anastomotic outcomes, and nerve-sparing grading systems has directly improved patient recovery and functional results. His large-scale analyses — including a 2,500-patient complication series and an 8,418-patient multi-institutional study on surgical margins — demonstrate both his commitment to evidence-based practice and his access to high-volume clinical data. With over ten highly cited publications and a documented history of robotic surgery, Chauhan's body of work represents a cornerstone resource for surgeons and researchers advancing minimally invasive prostate cancer care.
