About
Eugenio Martorana is a urologic surgeon whose research focuses on refining surgical techniques for kidney and prostate cancers, with a particular emphasis on minimally invasive approaches. His work addresses critical challenges in robotic and laparoscopic surgery, including the optimization of access methods to reduce complications—a topic explored in his highly cited 2016 review on the safest laparoscopic entry techniques, which has accumulated 34 combined citations. Martorana has made notable contributions to improving outcomes in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RALP), investigating the use of topical hemostatic agents like FloSeal to control perioperative bleeding and preserve erectile function. His 2017 study on this subject demonstrated that FloSeal does not adversely affect long-term functional recovery, providing reassurance for its use in nerve-sparing procedures. More recently, his 2023 scoping review on the surgical management of synchronous bilateral renal tumors (24 citations) addresses a significant evidence gap, offering guidance on the type and timing of surgery for this challenging condition. Martorana’s research consistently bridges the gap between surgical innovation and patient-centered outcomes, making him a valuable voice in the evolution of urologic oncology.
