Carlo De Nisco

About

Carlo De Nisco is a surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly in the realms of robotic and laparoscopic procedures. His primary research areas include the treatment of rare abdominal conditions, hernia repair, and oncologic colorectal surgery. De Nisco made a notable contribution to the management of Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome (MALS) by demonstrating the safety and feasibility of robotic-assisted MAL release, as detailed in a 2018 case report and literature review (43 citations). He has also significantly impacted bilateral hernia repair, leading a multicenter study that compared robotic versus laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) approaches, using propensity score matching to show the robotic technique’s advantages (29 citations). In colorectal oncology, De Nisco is a key investigator in the TiMiSNAR trial, a randomized controlled study exploring the optimal timing of minimally invasive surgery after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer (14 citations). His work is distinguished by a focus on evidence-based refinements to surgical protocols, enhancing patient outcomes through rigorous comparative studies.
