About

Christos Dervenis is a leading figure in pancreatic surgery, renowned for his pivotal role in shaping global standards for minimally invasive pancreas resection (MIPR). His research focuses on advancing surgical techniques, establishing evidence-based guidelines, and improving patient outcomes in complex pancreatic procedures. Dr. Dervenis was instrumental in developing the landmark Miami International Evidence-based Guidelines on MIPR (2019, 478 citations), which provided the first international consensus for safe implementation of these techniques. He further contributed to the Brescia Internationally Validated European Guidelines (2023, 117 citations), updating best practices for laparoscopic and robotic pancreatic surgery. His work also includes expert consensus on managing the pancreatic transection plane after distal pancreatectomy (2020, 73 citations) and a novel complexity and experience grading system to guide patient selection for minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (2024, 17 citations). Through these contributions, Dervenis has significantly influenced surgical decision-making, training, and patient safety worldwide, establishing himself as a key architect of modern, minimally invasive pancreatic surgery.
