About
Carlo Terrone is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally advanced the field of minimally invasive kidney surgery. His primary research areas center on nephron-sparing surgery, particularly partial nephrectomy, and the comparative effectiveness of open, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches. Terrone is the driving force behind the landmark RECORd (REnal COnservative surgery Registry) projects, a series of prospective multicenter observational studies that have provided critical, real-world data on perioperative outcomes. The RECORd 2 project, his most cited work with 131 citations, offers a comprehensive benchmark for surgical techniques. His research has also explored risk factors for complications in laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) and the nuances of transperitoneal versus retroperitoneal approaches for partial nephrectomy, with a combined citation count exceeding 200. Beyond kidney surgery, Terrone has contributed to the surgical management of ureteral stenosis and the learning curve for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. Notably, he has also addressed contemporary challenges in urology training, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on residency education. Through his leadership of large, multi-institutional cohorts, Terrone has established evidence-based standards that directly guide clinical decision-making for urologists worldwide.
