About
Dr. Sara Prieto Nogal is a pioneering robotic surgeon whose work has advanced minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, particularly in pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair. Her landmark prospective analysis on robotic sacrocolpopexy (53 citations) established long-term outcomes for treating severe cystocele, demonstrating that robot-assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy is a safe, durable option for grades III–IV POP. This study provided critical evidence for adopting robotic approaches in urogynecology, influencing clinical guidelines. Dr. Prieto Nogal also contributed to the early adoption of the Da Vinci® system in Spain, co-authoring the first report from a Spanish public hospital (Hospital Clínico San Carlos) on robotic radical prostatectomy (2008). Her work helped validate robotic surgery’s feasibility in a public healthcare setting, paving the way for broader implementation. With a career focused on translating innovative technology into improved patient outcomes, Dr. Prieto Nogal’s research remains foundational for surgeons exploring robotic pelvic reconstruction. Her contributions underscore the importance of prospective, long-term data in establishing robotic surgery as a standard of care.
