About
Charles U. Nottingham is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving outcomes in minimally invasive and robotic urologic surgery. His major contributions center on understanding and mitigating the two most common complications after robotic prostatectomy: urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction. In his highly cited 2017 study (30 citations), Nottingham challenged conventional thinking by demonstrating that these conditions are not mutually exclusive, revealing a significant correlation between them and identifying key risk factors for post-prostatectomy incontinence. He has also advanced the field through comparative effectiveness research, analyzing national databases to show that minimally invasive ureteral reimplantation offers superior 30-day outcomes over open surgery (15 citations). Additionally, his work on perioperative aspirin management during robotic partial nephrectomy (10 citations) provides critical guidance for balancing thrombotic risk with bleeding complications in high-risk patients. Nottingham’s research directly informs clinical decision-making, helping urologists better counsel patients and optimize surgical recovery.
