About
Loris Cacciatore is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher at the forefront of robotic surgery innovation. His work centers on the clinical application and technical refinement of next-generation robotic platforms, particularly the Hugo™ RAS system, for complex urologic oncology procedures. Cacciatore has made seminal contributions by establishing feasibility, safety protocols, and standardized surgical set-ups for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and radical prostatectomy using this novel system. His research on trocar placement, docking configurations, and three-arm settings has provided the foundational “how-to” guidance that enables other surgeons to adopt these technologies. With a rapidly growing body of work—his most cited paper on the history of robotic surgery in urology has already garnered 114 citations—Cacciatore’s impact is both immediate and far-reaching. He has also pioneered dedicated simulation training platforms for the Hugo™ system, addressing a critical gap in surgical education. By systematically evaluating functional outcomes and patient choice, his work ensures that technological advancement is matched by rigorous clinical evidence, positioning him as a key architect of the next era in minimally invasive urologic surgery.
