About

Dr. Emanuela Trenti is a distinguished urologic surgeon whose research has focused on refining surgical approaches for prostate cancer, particularly through the lens of radical perineal prostatectomy (RPP). Her work critically evaluates the role of this historically significant procedure in the modern era, where minimally invasive techniques dominate. In her most cited paper, "Radical perineal prostatectomy: An outdated procedure?" (2011, 14 citations), Dr. Trenti provides a comprehensive analysis of a single surgeon's experience, detailing technical aspects, oncological outcomes, and complications such as urinary incontinence. This contribution challenges prevailing assumptions by demonstrating that RPP remains a viable, effective option in select cases, offering valuable insights for surgeons seeking to optimize patient outcomes. Beyond this landmark study, her broader research addresses urologic oncology and surgical innovation, emphasizing evidence-based practice. With a career dedicated to advancing prostate cancer treatment, Dr. Trenti’s work has informed clinical decision-making and sparked dialogue on the enduring relevance of traditional techniques. Her scholarship continues to influence urologists and researchers, underscoring the importance of balancing historical wisdom with technological progress in surgical care.
