About

Dr. Ranko Miocinovic is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on the surgical management of kidney and bladder cancers, with a particular focus on minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques. His major contributions include comparative effectiveness research, where he demonstrated that robotic partial nephrectomy offers superior renal function preservation compared to laparoscopic cryoablation for small renal masses, a finding that has guided clinical decision-making and garnered over 94 citations. He has also advanced the understanding of surgical outcomes in vulnerable populations, notably showing that robotic and laparoscopic radical cystectomy can be safely performed in elderly patients, and that robotic partial nephrectomy is a viable option for those with pre-existing chronic kidney disease. His work on the utility of intraoperative frozen section analysis during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy has helped refine surgical protocols to ensure negative margins. With a cumulative citation count exceeding 190, Dr. Miocinovic’s research has had a tangible impact on urologic oncology, providing evidence that supports the adoption of robotic surgery for complex renal and bladder cases while prioritizing patient safety and long-term kidney function.
