Urologia, il prof. Giovanni Muto è il nuovo responsabile
"Clinical activity, research and university training: we will move in these three directions to better treat patients and contribute to scientific knowledge", explains the urologist who in Humanitas Gradenigo will use the most advanced technologies to tackle the typical tumors of the aurous apparatus -genital.
Professor Giovanni Muto is
the new head of Urology of Humanitas
Gradenigo . Fresh from his experience at the helm of
Urology at the Campus Bio-Medico University Hospital of Rome, Professor Muto was
Head of Urology at the Maria Vittoria Hospital between 1990 and 1998 and
Director of Urology at the San Giovanni Bosco Hospital until to 2014. Its name
is linked to the invention of two surgical techniques for
bladder tumors , both developed in Turin and now adopted
all over the world: the " Seminal sparing ",
which allows you to maintain sexual potency even in the case of removal of the
bladder and the “ Turin pouch”, Which
uses a stretch of the colon to create a sac with the function of a bladder.
Full Professor of Urology at Humanitas University ,
Director of the Specialty School of Urology at the Campus Bio-Medico University
of Rome and adjunct professor at the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery of the
Temple University of Philadelphia (United States), Professor Muto brings
to Humanitas
Gradenigo experience of over 25 thousand urological
interventions and about 100 scientific publications resulting
from collaboration with some of the main international universities .
« Clinical activity, research and
university training will be the roads on which I will work
in Humanitas
Gradenigo - says Professor Muto -. These
are three aspects that the reality of Humanitas considers
to be of primary importance and which find a valid example also in the University ,
young and projected towards the future thanks to its international mentality ».
Apart from the actions of major surgery who
delivered the international authority to Professor Muto ,
the ' Urology of Humanitas
Gradenigo will stand for minimally invasive techniques laser that
will be used for the removal of prostatic adenomas and bladder
cancers as well as for technical laparoscopy to
which it will be used for prostate and kidney cancers and
for nephrectomies . Activities
that will enrich and integrate andrological treatmentsfor
impotence, male infertility and the treatment of urinary stones and incontinence already
widely established at the hospital's Urology.
The Urology department will
also count on the most modern version of the Fusion Biopsy ,
the technology that merges the images of the magnetic resonance with those of
the 3D echograph allows the execution of targeted samples, useful for locating prostate
cancer with greater precision in order to to get a more
accurate diagnosis . Professor Muto and
Dr. Alessandro
Giacobbe, now his collaborator in Humanitas
Gradenigo , were the first in Piedmont to adopt the Fusion
Biopsy, in 2013 at the Fornaca Clinic. Today they will also be used in Humanitas
Gradenigo: "We will make our absolute experience available
to patients by combining it with the latest generation equipment, essential for
recognizing the presence of the disease at an early stage and making it easier
to treat the most common male cancer in the Western
world ", explain the two urologists .
About 40 percent of solid tumors today are attributable to the uro-genital
system . For this reason the ' Urology
of the Humanitas Gradenigo will
work closely with the' Oncology directed
by Dr. Alessandro Comandone . Also in
this case, the clinical activity that sees the hospital included within the Oncological
Network of Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta , will be
accompanied by scientific research aimed
at the study of neoplasms affecting the organs of the urinary and genital
tract.
