About
Dr. Andreea Ciudin is a leading bariatric surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for weight loss surgery, with a particular emphasis on robotic-assisted and revisional procedures. Her work has been instrumental in demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic surgery for complex bariatric cases, including staged procedures after previous sleeve gastrectomy and revisional operations following failed primary surgeries. In her highly cited 2015 study (30 citations), she pioneered the use of robotic assistance for single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass after sleeve gastrectomy, establishing a novel approach for high-risk patients. Her 2021 comparative study (24 citations) between laparoscopic and robot-assisted Roux-en-Y gastric bypass provided crucial evidence from a Center of Excellence, showing that robotic technology reduces surgical trauma in obese patients. More recently, her prospective cohort studies (2021, 2023) have demonstrated that revisional robotic surgery offers superior outcomes compared to standard laparoscopic approaches, with better efficacy, safety, and shorter hospital stays. Dr. Ciudin’s work continues to shape best practices in bariatric surgery, encouraging surgeons to adopt robotic techniques for complex revisional cases.
