About

Michael Garcia‐Roig is a leading pediatric urologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for congenital urological conditions in children. His major contributions center on robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery, particularly for ureteral reimplantation to correct vesicoureteral reflux. His most-cited work, a 2018 prospective multicenter study on robot-assisted laparoscopic extravesical ureteral reimplantation (RALUR-EV), has garnered 76 citations, establishing benchmarks for outcomes and complications in this emerging field. This study has been instrumental in validating the safety and efficacy of robotic approaches, helping to shift pediatric urology toward less invasive procedures with improved recovery times. Garcia‐Roig’s impact is evident in how his findings guide surgical decision-making and training protocols worldwide. Beyond this pivotal paper, his broader body of work continues to shape best practices in pediatric urology, making him a respected voice in the integration of robotics into children’s surgical care.
