About
Tracey L. Krupski is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally shaped the modern surgical landscape for bladder and prostate cancers. Her primary research areas center on robotic-assisted surgery, patient safety, and comparative effectiveness in urologic oncology. Dr. Krupski is best known as the lead investigator of the landmark RAZOR trial (760 citations), a phase 3 non-inferiority study that provided the highest-level evidence comparing robot-assisted radical cystectomy to open surgery for bladder cancer. This work, along with subsequent analyses tracking 3-year recurrence and survival outcomes (115 citations), has directly informed clinical guidelines worldwide. She has also made significant contributions to understanding patient satisfaction and regret following prostate cancer surgery (370 citations), revealing critical insights into preoperative expectations and postoperative quality of life. Her research on positioning injuries during robotic urologic surgery (110 citations) has established safety protocols adopted across surgical disciplines. Dr. Krupski’s work bridges rigorous clinical trial methodology with patient-centered outcomes, ensuring that technological advances in surgery are matched by improvements in patient experience and safety.
