About

Alessandro Ambrosi is a surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly robotic and laparoscopic approaches, for the treatment of urologic and gastrointestinal cancers. His major contributions center on improving preoperative staging accuracy for prostate cancer, where his work has demonstrated that negative multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) can reliably rule out extra-prostatic extension before robot-assisted radical prostatectomy—a finding that helps guide surgical planning and reduce overtreatment. This key study has accumulated over 30 citations, reflecting its clinical impact. Beyond urology, Ambrosi has contributed to colorectal surgery, reporting on large single-center series of laparoscopic and robotic right colectomies (22 citations) and total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer (17 citations), establishing benchmarks for safety and oncologic outcomes. He has also explored the benefits of robotic versus laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in bariatric surgery. Through these cumulative experiences, Ambrosi has helped validate the role of robotic platforms across multiple surgical disciplines, offering evidence that supports their adoption for complex oncologic procedures.
