About

Michele Marengo is a surgical researcher whose work sits at the intersection of minimally invasive surgery, bariatric procedures, and surgical technology. His research focuses primarily on comparative analyses of robotic-assisted and laparoscopic approaches in bariatric surgery, with a particular emphasis on evaluating clinical outcomes, safety profiles, and economic considerations. Marengo's most influential contribution is his 2021 systematic review and meta-analysis examining perioperative outcomes in robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic revisional bariatric surgery, which has garnered 78 citations and established itself as a key reference for surgeons navigating increasingly complex reoperative cases. This work provided the field with rigorous evidence-based guidance at a time when robotic platforms were rapidly expanding into bariatric practice. Building on this foundation, his 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis addresses the critical and often underexplored question of cost differences between robotic and laparoscopic bariatric procedures, reflecting a growing recognition that surgical innovation must be evaluated not only for efficacy but also for healthcare sustainability. Marengo's body of work makes him a valuable voice in ongoing conversations about the clinical and economic value of emerging surgical technologies.
