About
Dr. Cristina Cano Garcia is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes for prostate and kidney cancers. Her primary research areas include robotic-assisted surgery, oncologic outcomes, and postoperative quality of life. Dr. Garcia’s most influential study, with 8 citations, examines how age impacts long-term urinary continence after robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy, providing critical data for patient counseling. She has also demonstrated that lymphovascular and perineural invasion in prostatectomy specimens are significant predictors of biochemical recurrence (7 citations), helping refine risk stratification. In renal cell carcinoma, her propensity-matched analysis comparing open versus robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (7 citations) offers evidence-based guidance on surgical approach selection. Her work on preoperative double-J stenting in pyeloplasty (3 citations) addresses perioperative complications and quality of life. Most recently, Dr. Garcia is exploring how combining positive surgical margin extension with Gleason score can enhance prognostic accuracy after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (2 citations). Through these contributions, she is advancing precision in urologic oncology and helping surgeons tailor treatments to individual patient needs.
