About
Dr. Angela Galgano is a pioneering thoracic surgeon whose work is reshaping the landscape of minimally invasive lung cancer surgery. Her primary research focuses on comparing robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), with a particular emphasis on optimizing outcomes for lobectomy procedures. Her landmark 2023 study, a monocentric prospective randomized trial, directly compared RATS versus VATS lobectomy, providing critical evidence on operative efficiency, patient recovery, and oncologic safety. This work, already garnering 35 citations, has become a foundational reference for surgeons debating the adoption of robotic platforms. Dr. Galgano’s contributions extend beyond this trial; she is recognized for advancing surgical precision and reducing morbidity in thoracic oncology. Her research not only informs clinical guidelines but also empowers the next generation of surgeons to embrace data-driven innovation. With a growing citation impact, Dr. Galgano stands at the forefront of a paradigm shift, demonstrating how rigorous comparative studies can elevate patient care in the era of robotic surgery.
