About
Lorenzo Viola is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive robotic surgery for prostate and pediatric urological conditions. His most impactful contributions focus on improving surgical outcomes and reducing complications. His highly cited 2019 study on robotic pyeloplasty in children (26 citations) provided critical insights into how body weight influences surgical outcomes, helping to refine patient selection and perioperative care. Viola’s 2020 investigation into symptomatic lymphocele development following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy and lymph node dissection (24 citations) established a predictive framework that has become a valuable tool for urologists managing prostate cancer patients. He has also prospectively studied the safety of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy during robotic prostatectomy, and more recently, he compared waterjet ablation therapy with urethral-sparing robot-assisted simple prostatectomy for large prostates, contributing to the evolving BPH6 outcome standardization. Through these studies, Viola has demonstrated a consistent focus on evidence-based refinement of robotic techniques, directly impacting clinical decision-making and patient quality of life.
