About

Danilo Bottero is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher specializing in robotic-assisted oncology, with a focus on renal, prostate, and testicular cancers. His major contributions center on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques to improve both oncologic and functional outcomes. Bottero’s landmark work includes demonstrating the long-term safety and efficacy of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy in elderly patients (35 citations) and reporting 5-year oncological outcomes at a European tertiary cancer center (26 citations). He has also pioneered comparisons of intracorporeal versus extracorporeal orthotopic ileal neobladder reconstruction following radical cystectomy (24 citations), and developed novel approaches such as the “Shell” technique for intracorporeal neobladder creation. In prostate cancer, Bottero has evaluated multiparametric MRI and frozen-section analysis to predict upgrading and extraprostatic extension (23 citations), and introduced the PSIM score for risk stratification. His work extends to sexual and reproductive outcomes after retroperitoneal lymph node dissection for testis cancer (16 citations), and he has compared open versus robotic approaches in this setting. With over 160 citations across his most-cited papers, Bottero’s research consistently pushes the boundaries of robotic urologic surgery, offering patients safer, more effective, and less invasive treatment options.
