About
Andrea Belli has emerged as a leading voice in minimally invasive hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, with a research portfolio centered on the comparative evaluation of robotic and laparoscopic approaches to liver and pancreatic resection. Working within large-scale international and Italian multicenter frameworks — including the I Go MILS and IGOMIPS registries — Belli has helped shape evidence-based understanding of when and how minimally invasive techniques should be applied across a spectrum of surgical complexity. His most impactful contributions focus on rigorous propensity-score and coarsened-exact matched analyses comparing robotic versus laparoscopic hepatectomies across anatomically challenging segments, major resections, and cirrhotic patients — work that has collectively accumulated nearly 200 citations since 2023 alone. Notably, his studies on posterosuperior segment resections and major hepatectomy outcomes address one of the most technically demanding frontiers in liver surgery, while his investigations into open conversion risk factors across nearly 15,000 minimally invasive procedures offer vital safety insights for practicing surgeons. Belli's work on hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic livers further underscores his commitment to understanding real-world surgical risk. For students and researchers in surgical oncology, his contributions represent an essential, data-driven roadmap for the evolving role of robotic surgery in hepatopancreatic care.
