About

Anton F. Gijsen is a pioneering surgeon-researcher whose work sits at the intersection of robotic surgery and fluorescence-guided imaging, with a focus on hepatobiliary and pancreatic procedures. His major contributions center on improving surgical precision and patient safety through the intraoperative use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence. In his prospective dual-center cohort study on robot-assisted and fluorescence-guided remnant cholecystectomy (2023, 8 citations), Gijsen demonstrated how real-time biliary imaging can reduce complications in complex redo surgeries. He further advanced the field with his 2024 study on preventing postoperative bile leakage during hepaticojejunostomy in robot-assisted pancreatic surgery (5 citations), offering a novel technique that enhances visualization of biliary anatomy. Though early in his citation trajectory, these works represent foundational steps toward standardizing fluorescence guidance in minimally invasive surgery. Gijsen’s research is particularly notable for its translational impact—bridging cutting-edge imaging technology with practical, reproducible surgical workflows. His dual-center collaborations underscore a commitment to evidence-based innovation, positioning him as a rising leader in robotic hepatobiliary surgery.
