About

Mikolaj Mendrek is a urological surgeon and clinical researcher whose work sits at the intersection of robotic surgery, oncology, and patient-centered outcomes. Operating within high-volume surgical centers, Mendrek has built a distinguished body of research focused primarily on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC), exploring how these minimally invasive techniques perform across diverse and challenging patient populations. His most cited work (32 citations) examines functional outcomes following intracorporeal neobladder reconstruction after radical cystectomy — an area where clinical evidence has historically been sparse. Complementing this, he has investigated how patient-specific factors such as advanced age, obesity, prior transurethral procedures, and preoperative lower urinary tract symptoms influence surgical, oncological, and quality-of-life outcomes after RARP, collectively accumulating over 90 citations. Notably, his research demonstrated that men aged 75 and older can safely undergo RARP with comparable outcomes, offering meaningful guidance for clinical decision-making in elderly populations. Mendrek also contributes to surgical technique advancement, including a widely referenced review of pyeloplasty innovations (15 citations). His affiliation with the European Association of Urology Robotic Urology Section further underscores his standing in the field. Across his portfolio, Mendrek consistently champions evidence-based refinement of robotic urological surgery to maximize patient outcomes.
