About
Simone Sforza is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work spans minimally invasive and robotic surgery across both pediatric and adult urology. With a body of research accumulating over 345 citations across his most prominent publications, Sforza has established himself as a leading voice in the advancement of robot-assisted surgical techniques. His most influential contributions center on robotic pyeloplasty for uretero-pelvic junction obstruction in children, including a widely cited comparative study and systematic review that have helped shape modern pediatric surgical standards. Beyond pediatric urology, Sforza has made significant contributions to adult urological oncology, investigating robotic partial nephrectomy enhanced by three-dimensional preoperative planning, endoscopic simple enucleation for renal cell carcinoma, and the management of synchronous bilateral renal masses. His multicenter collaborative research — spanning robotic adrenalectomy, ureteral reimplantation for vesicoureteral reflux, and iatrogenic ureteral stricture repair — reflects both his technical breadth and commitment to evidence-based surgical innovation. His work on predicting lymphocele formation following radical prostatectomy further demonstrates his interest in improving patient safety and perioperative outcomes across the full spectrum of urological practice.
