About
Madhu-Ashni Prasad is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical techniques for prostate cancer treatment, with a particular focus on improving patient quality of life. Her most significant contribution is the pioneering investigation of the Retzius-sparing approach in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. Through a landmark pragmatic randomized controlled trial published in 2017, which has garnered over 215 citations, Prasad demonstrated that this technique significantly accelerates early urinary continence recovery compared to conventional methods. This work has reshaped surgical protocols and offered men undergoing prostate cancer surgery a faster return to normal function, directly addressing one of the most feared side effects of treatment. Beyond this seminal study, her research portfolio spans comparative effectiveness, surgical innovation, and patient-reported outcomes, consistently bridging the gap between technical precision and meaningful patient-centered care. Prasad’s work is widely cited by urologists and oncologists worldwide, underscoring its impact on both clinical practice and future research directions. Her contributions have established her as a key voice in the evolution of minimally invasive prostate surgery, making her a vital resource for students and clinicians seeking evidence-based approaches to improving surgical recovery.
