About
Dr. Mark Ferretti is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques for complex reconstructive and oncologic procedures. His most impactful contribution is the landmark multi-institutional study, "Robotic Ureteral Reconstruction Using Buccal Mucosa Grafts" (145 citations), which established a novel, less invasive alternative for repairing long ureteral strictures, demonstrating that robotic technology can achieve outcomes comparable to open surgery while reducing patient morbidity. Dr. Ferretti has also significantly shaped the modern approach to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), authoring a comprehensive review on prostatectomy techniques—open, laparoscopic, and robotic—that serves as a critical reference for surgeons navigating treatment options in the post-MTOPS era. Further demonstrating his technical expertise, he has reported on robot-assisted nephroureterectomy in patients with complex anatomy, such as those with an ileal conduit, pushing the boundaries of what is surgically possible. Through these works, Dr. Ferretti has not only generated over 200 combined citations but has also provided the urologic community with reproducible, evidence-based protocols that directly improve patient recovery and surgical precision.
