About
Savio Domenico Pandolfo is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work sits at the forefront of minimally invasive and robotic surgery, with particular expertise in the management of renal cell carcinoma, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and prostate cancer. His research has significantly advanced the evidence base for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), through rigorous systematic reviews and meta-analyses examining its application in increasingly complex scenarios — including large tumors, hilar masses, solitary kidneys, and completely endophytic lesions — collectively amassing nearly 200 citations across three landmark studies. Pandolfo has also made meaningful contributions to BPH management, evaluating robotic simple prostatectomy against alternative modalities across more than 6,500 cases and providing a sweeping analysis of national surgical trends and retreatment rates in the United States. His innovative work extends to biomarker research, exploring oxidative stress indicators following radical prostatectomy, and to predictive modeling, developing a validated nomogram for chronic kidney disease progression after RAPN. With over 450 total citations across his ten most-cited works alone, Pandolfo's research consistently bridges clinical nuance with rigorous methodology, making him an important voice in the evolving landscape of robotic urological surgery.
