About
Vincenzo Altieri is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for urologic cancers, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted procedures for prostate, kidney, bladder, and adrenal malignancies. His major contributions include landmark comparative studies that have shaped clinical practice, most notably his multi-institutional analysis of transperitoneal versus retroperitoneal approaches in minimally invasive partial nephrectomy—a highly cited work (51 citations) that provides critical evidence for surgical decision-making in kidney cancer. Altieri has also driven innovation in functional recovery after prostate surgery, investigating both technical refinements in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy to improve early continence and the comparative efficacy of avanafil versus sildenafil for erectile dysfunction following nerve-sparing procedures. His systematic review on robotic surgery in bladder cancer patients further underscores his commitment to evaluating oncologic and functional outcomes across the urologic spectrum. With additional contributions to adrenal surgery trends and a growing citation impact, Altieri stands as a key voice in the evidence-based evolution of robotic urology, bridging technical mastery with rigorous outcomes research to improve patient quality of life.
