About

Simon Gloger is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on refining robotic-assisted procedures to improve patient outcomes. His primary research areas include robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), partial nephrectomy (RAPN), and the prevention of postoperative complications, particularly lymphoceles. Gloger’s most significant contribution is the prospective randomized multicenter ProLy trial, which demonstrated that bilateral peritoneal flaps dramatically reduce the incidence and complications of lymphoceles after RARP with pelvic lymph node dissection—a finding with over 34 citations that has influenced surgical practice. He has also led large-scale multicenter analyses, including a study of 2,500 patients showing that prior surgical experience significantly impacts RAPN outcomes (28 citations), and a meta-analysis of six randomized trials confirming the consistent benefit of peritoneal interposition flaps. His work identifying high BMI and prolonged surgical time as key lymphocele risk factors (8 citations) further aids preoperative planning. With multiple high-impact publications and a focus on evidence-based surgical innovation, Gloger is shaping the future of minimally invasive urologic oncology.
