About
Carlos Pastor is a leading colorectal surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for rectal cancer, with a particular focus on robotic and laparoscopic approaches. His major contributions include a landmark systematic review and meta-analysis comparing short-term outcomes of robotic versus laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer, a study that has garnered significant attention for its rigorous synthesis of evidence. This work, published in 2025, has already accumulated 3 citations, underscoring its immediate impact on clinical decision-making and surgical practice. Dr. Pastor’s research is notable for its emphasis on patient-centered outcomes, such as operative time, length of hospital stay, and complication rates, providing crucial data to guide surgeons in selecting the optimal approach. Beyond this meta-analysis, his broader portfolio explores innovations in colorectal surgery, aiming to reduce recovery times and improve quality of life for patients. His dedication to evidence-based practice and surgical excellence makes him a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the evolving landscape of robotic surgery and its role in oncologic care.
