About

Anthony Adili is a leading researcher in the fields of robotic-assisted surgery and health technology assessment, with a particular focus on orthopedic and urologic procedures. His work has been instrumental in quantifying the clinical and economic impacts of robotic surgery, bridging the gap between surgical innovation and healthcare policy. Adili’s most cited paper, "Robot-Assisted Orthopedic Surgery" (2004, 40 citations), established the foundational advantages of robotic systems—improved accuracy, precision, and reproducibility in bone preparation—demonstrating why orthopedics is ideally suited for robotic application. His influential economic evaluation of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in Ontario (2020, 22 citations) directly informed health technology assessments, providing critical cost-benefit analysis that shaped funding decisions. Adili has also contributed to understanding surgical learning curves, notably analyzing positive surgical margin rates during robotic prostatectomy adoption (2017, 15 citations), and has explored the feasibility of telesurgery in extreme environments through his involvement in NASA’s NEEMO missions. His recent meta-analysis on the learning curve of robotic total knee arthroplasty (2025) continues to guide surgical training. With a career spanning two decades, Adili’s research uniquely combines technical surgical outcomes with rigorous economic evaluation, making him a pivotal figure in the evidence-based adoption of robotic surgery.
