About
Antonio Ambrosi is a leading figure in minimally invasive surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic and laparoscopic approaches to complex gastrointestinal and endocrine procedures. His research primarily addresses the safety, efficacy, and functional outcomes of advanced surgical techniques, particularly in thyroid, colorectal, and bariatric surgery. A major contribution is his systematic review on vessel sealing devices in thyroid surgery, which clarifies their relationship with recurrent laryngeal nerve injuries—a critical safety concern. With over 20 citations, this work has helped refine operative standards. Ambrosi has also pioneered comparative studies, such as his evaluation of laparoscopic versus robotic right hemicolectomy, demonstrating robotic surgery’s potential for superior short-term outcomes in colorectal cancer. His case report on robotic paraesophageal hernia repair, also highly cited, showcases his skill in complex reconstructive surgery. Notably, Ambrosi has explored the novel intersection of intra-abdominal pressure during laparoscopy and hindbrain-related syringomyelia, highlighting his commitment to patient safety across surgical disciplines. His recent work on robotic gastric bypass further positions him as a key advocate for the adoption of robotic platforms in bariatric surgery, with his early experience suggesting this technology is a valid, promising alternative to traditional laparoscopy.
