About

Massimo Robiony is a leading figure in maxillofacial surgery, with a focused research agenda on the integration of robotic technologies into the specialty. His major contributions center on the application of Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) for head and neck pathologies, systematically evaluating its effectiveness beyond traditional otorhinolaryngology and into complex maxillofacial procedures. Robiony’s work has been pivotal in demonstrating how robotic precision can improve outcomes in anatomically challenging regions, such as the orbit, where his comprehensive reviews have laid the groundwork for minimally invasive approaches. His most cited paper (2024, 9 citations) provides a critical systematic review of TORS’s current and future roles in maxillofacial surgery, while his 2025 review on robotic management of orbital diseases (3 citations) highlights his forward-looking perspective. Through these contributions, Robiony has helped establish a roadmap for the safe adoption of robotic systems in craniofacial care, bridging the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice. His work is essential reading for surgeons and researchers exploring the frontiers of robotic-assisted maxillofacial surgery.
