About
Dr. Sara Khaksar is a distinguished urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advanced surgical techniques for prostate cancer, particularly in the challenging domain of salvage therapies for recurrent disease. Her major contributions lie in refining robot-assisted procedures to treat isolated recurrences following primary treatments like low-dose-rate brachytherapy. In her most cited work, "Robot‐assisted salvage seminal vesicle excision for isolated recurrence after low‐dose‐rate prostate brachytherapy" (2021, 7 citations), Dr. Khaksar and her team demonstrated the feasibility and safety of this focal approach, reporting encouraging clinical and functional outcomes for patients with limited seminal vesicle recurrence. This study has helped establish a minimally invasive option for a patient population with few alternatives, offering a pathway to potentially delay more aggressive systemic treatments. Her research underscores a commitment to precision oncology, balancing oncologic control with quality of life. Dr. Khaksar’s work is particularly notable for addressing a niche but critical clinical gap, providing evidence that can guide urologists in managing complex recurrence scenarios. Her contributions continue to shape the evolution of salvage surgery in prostate cancer care.
