About
Dr. Vivek Vasudeo is a pioneering uro-oncologist whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex genitourinary cancers. His primary research focuses on the application of robotic surgery in testicular, upper-tract urothelial, and penile cancers. Dr. Vasudeo’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RA-RPLND) for post-chemotherapy residual masses in testicular cancer, with his landmark 2022 study—the largest single-center experience of its kind—garnering 11 citations. He has also provided crucial comparative evidence showing that robot-assisted radical nephroureterectomy offers superior outcomes over laparoscopic approaches for upper-tract urothelial carcinoma. Notably, Dr. Vasudeo led the first Indian multicenter experience of robot-assisted video endoscopic inguinal lymph node dissection for penile cancer, a study that has already received 4 citations. His work with the indigenous SSI Mantra™ surgical robotic system further underscores his commitment to expanding access to advanced robotic technology. With a growing citation impact and a focus on improving oncological and functional outcomes, Dr. Vasudeo is shaping the future of robotic uro-oncology in India and beyond.
