About
Dr. Roberto Contieri is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work is reshaping the surgical management of urologic cancers, with a particular focus on robotic and minimally invasive techniques. His research spans the full spectrum of urologic oncology, including renal cell carcinoma, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, penile cancer, and testicular cancer. Dr. Contieri is best known for his contributions to robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), where his systematic review on treating renal hilar masses (48 citations) has become a key reference for surgeons tackling complex tumors. He has also advanced the field through meta-analyses comparing robotic and open radical cystectomy (27 citations), and has pioneered novel approaches such as single-port bilateral inguinal lymph node dissection for penile cancer and single-port robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection for testicular cancer. His work on urinary diversion trends after cystectomy, drawing from a large international cohort, and his external validation of prostate cancer nomograms further demonstrate his commitment to evidence-based surgical innovation. With over 100 citations across his most-cited works, Dr. Contieri is a rising authority in robotic urologic oncology, consistently pushing the boundaries of what is possible with minimally invasive surgery.
