About
Gianluca Brunetti is a leading urological surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive treatments for benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). His primary research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes for patients with large prostates, particularly through the refinement of robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP). Brunetti’s major contribution lies in the development and validation of the Retzius-sparing approach to RASP, a technique designed to preserve critical anatomical structures and enhance functional recovery. In his landmark 2024 study, he demonstrated that this approach yields excellent perioperative safety and superior short-term functional outcomes, as rigorously assessed by validated patient-reported questionnaires. While his most-cited paper has garnered 2 citations to date, its impact is expected to grow as the technique gains wider adoption. Brunetti’s work is notable for its emphasis on evidence-based surgical innovation, bridging the gap between traditional open surgery and modern robotic platforms. By prioritizing both objective clinical metrics and subjective patient experiences, he is helping to define a new standard of care for men with large-volume BPO, making him a rising voice in the field of robotic urology.
