About

Lucas Monteiro Delgado is a rising surgeon-scientist whose work is shaping the future of minimally invasive surgery. His primary research focuses on comparative effectiveness and outcomes in robotic-assisted surgery, particularly within gastrointestinal and vascular procedures. Delgado’s major contribution lies in providing high-level, evidence-based clarity on the clinical advantages of robotic platforms over conventional laparoscopic techniques. His most influential work, a 2024 systematic review and meta-analysis on robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic cholecystectomy, has already garnered 25 citations, establishing a benchmark for safety and efficacy in benign gallbladder disease. He has further extended this rigorous methodology to colorectal oncology, where his trial sequential meta-analysis (2025, 4 citations) critically evaluates the uncertain benefits of robotic surgery for colorectal cancer. Additionally, his single-arm meta-analysis on robotic surgery for aortoiliac disease (2025, 4 citations) demonstrates his versatility in applying evidence synthesis to complex vascular pathologies. Through these impactful analyses, Delgado is equipping surgeons with the data needed to navigate the rapid adoption of robotic technology, ensuring that innovation is guided by robust clinical evidence.
