About
Vincenzo De Marco is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), pelvic lymph node dissection, and surgical oncology for prostate cancer. His research has meaningfully advanced the field by tackling practical, high-stakes questions: identifying body mass index as an independent predictor of serious surgical complications, refining the boundaries of extended pelvic lymphadenectomy through investigations of Cloquet's and Marcille's fossa nodes, and optimizing perioperative care through randomized controlled trials on drainage protocols and pain management strategies. His 2018 double-blind RCT on transversus abdominal plane blocks (36 citations) and drain necessity trial (29 citations) reflect a rigorous commitment to evidence-based surgical practice. De Marco has also contributed to robotic innovation through the landmark COMPAR-P prospective trial, which offers rare head-to-head performance data comparing the Hugo RAS and da Vinci Xi platforms across intraoperative metrics and patient quality of life outcomes. With a portfolio accumulating over 300 citations, his scholarship bridges technical surgical refinement with patient-centered outcomes, making him a valuable reference for clinicians and trainees navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of robotic urological surgery.
