About
Simone Morra is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving outcomes for prostate cancer patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). His research spans three key areas: optimizing surgical techniques, understanding patient-specific factors that influence recovery, and addressing the challenges of managing complex patient populations. Morra has made significant contributions by identifying predictors of histopathological features like cribriform variant status and perineural invasion, and by investigating how prostate gland asymmetry affects continence recovery after RARP. His work on on-clamp versus off-clamp robot-assisted partial nephrectomy, using advanced statistical methods like inverse probability of treatment weighting, has helped refine surgical approaches for kidney cancer. With over 70 citations across his most-cited papers, Morra’s impact is evident in his systematic review on managing prostate cancer patients with concurrent colorectal cancer—a challenging clinical scenario. He has also advanced surgical education through studies on robotic training and proctoring, ensuring that innovations in RARP are effectively disseminated. Morra’s research bridges the gap between surgical technique and patient-centered outcomes, making him a rising voice in urologic oncology.
