About

Cosimo De Nunzio is a prominent urological surgeon and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of minimally invasive surgery, robotic-assisted procedures, and the management of both benign and malignant urological conditions. His research has made substantial contributions to understanding the outcomes of robotic-assisted surgery across a spectrum of procedures, including radical prostatectomy, simple prostatectomy for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), partial nephrectomy, and radical cystectomy. His systematic reviews and meta-analyses, collectively accumulating hundreds of citations, have helped define best practices in robotic urology — most notably his 2022 meta-analysis of over 6,500 BPH cases, which has rapidly become a key reference in the field. De Nunzio has also pioneered work on single-port robotic systems, positioning himself at the frontier of next-generation surgical technology. Notably, his 2023 prospective multicentre study examining the carbon footprint of radical prostatectomy reflects a rare and forward-thinking engagement with surgical sustainability. Through nomogram development for renal cancer outcomes and large database analyses of BPH surgical trends, De Nunzio consistently bridges clinical innovation with rigorous evidence-based methodology, making his work essential reading for surgeons and trainees alike.
