About

Rebecka Arnsrud Godtman is a leading urological surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally shaped our understanding of outcomes after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Her research centers on the critical interplay between surgical volume, technique, and patient-reported outcomes in prostate cancer surgery. Through landmark population-based studies using Sweden’s National Prostate Cancer Register, she has demonstrated that higher surgeon and hospital volumes are significantly associated with better short-term outcomes and reduced urinary incontinence after RARP—findings that have informed surgical quality standards worldwide. Her work on vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis and the degree of neurovascular bundle preservation has provided evidence-based guidance for balancing oncological control with functional recovery. With papers accumulating over 90 citations, Godtman’s research is distinguished by its rigorous, nationwide methodology and focus on real-world, patient-centered outcomes. Her contributions are essential reading for anyone studying surgical quality improvement or seeking to understand the factors that determine success after radical prostatectomy.
