About
Andrea Romboli is a pioneering hepatobiliary and colorectal surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive and staged surgical approaches for complex liver and colorectal diseases. Her most impactful contribution is a landmark systematic review of partial splenectomy, analyzing 2,130 published cases to clarify patient selection, timing, and technique—a study that has garnered 57 citations and become a cornerstone reference for spleen-preserving surgery. Romboli’s expertise in robotic surgery is exemplified by her pioneering report of a fully robotic Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation for Staged Hepatectomy (ALPPS) combined with simultaneous left colectomy for synchronous colorectal liver metastases. This innovative procedure, detailed in a 2020 paper (11 citations), demonstrates her ability to integrate advanced staging strategies with robotic precision, offering new hope for patients with extensive tumor burden and marginal future liver remnant volume. Her work bridges critical gaps in surgical oncology, providing evidence-based guidance for complex resections while expanding the frontiers of robotic hepatobiliary surgery. Romboli’s research continues to shape clinical protocols for high-risk, multidisciplinary cancer care.
