About

Carlo Alberto De Pasqual is a leading surgical oncologist whose research centers on advancing robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE), particularly for esophageal cancer. His major contributions focus on refining the Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy technique, demonstrating that robotic approaches can achieve more accurate lymph node dissection without increasing postoperative leak rates—a critical balance in oncologic surgery. His 2023 study on robotic versus open Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy (17 citations) established that RAMIE combines the pulmonary benefits of minimally invasive surgery with the anastomotic safety of open procedures, marking a significant step forward in reducing complications. In his 2024 multicenter work (3 citations), De Pasqual systematically compared hand-sewn, linear-stapled, and circular-stapled anastomotic techniques, providing surgeons with evidence-based guidance for optimizing outcomes. His research has direct clinical impact, helping to standardize robotic esophagectomy protocols and improve patient recovery. De Pasqual’s work is essential reading for surgeons and trainees interested in the intersection of robotics, oncologic precision, and postoperative safety in esophageal surgery.
