About
Dr. Paolo Pietro Suraci is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for prostate and pelvic floor disorders, with a particular emphasis on optimizing functional outcomes and broadening the scope of surgical impact. His major contributions include leading a prospective multicenter randomized study comparing Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) against laparoscopic and robot-assisted simple prostatectomy for large-volume glands (≥120 mL), a work cited 55 times that provides critical guidance for surgical decision-making. Demonstrating an innovative and holistic approach, Dr. Suraci conducted a prospective multicenter study on the global climate impact of radical prostatectomy, comparing laparoscopic versus robotic surgery—a unique contribution that earned 29 citations and highlights his commitment to sustainability in healthcare. He has also advanced the understanding of urinary continence recovery by correlating preoperative MRI measurements of spared urethral length with outcomes after robotic prostatectomy. With additional work on nerve-sparing techniques and pelvic organ prolapse repair, Dr. Suraci’s research consistently bridges technical precision with patient quality of life, establishing him as a leader in evidence-based, patient-centered urologic innovation.
