About
Clarissa Ferrari is a leading surgical researcher whose work is reshaping the landscape of pancreatic surgery. Her primary focus lies in the rigorous evaluation of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery (MIPS), particularly comparing laparoscopic and robotic approaches against traditional open procedures. Ferrari’s major contributions include co-authoring the landmark “Brescia Internationally Validated European Guidelines on Minimally Invasive Pancreatic Surgery (EGUMIPS),” a consensus-based framework that has garnered over 117 citations and set new standards for clinical practice. She is also the driving force behind the DIPLOMA-2 trial, a pivotal international, patient-blinded randomized controlled trial assessing the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive versus open pancreatoduodenectomy. With her work accumulating hundreds of citations, including key publications in high-impact journals, Ferrari has provided critical evidence that MIPD may accelerate postoperative recovery without compromising safety. Her ongoing studies, such as the SIMPLR project, continue to refine surgical decision-making for left-sided pancreatic resections. Through her methodical, evidence-based approach, Ferrari is helping to define the future of pancreatic cancer surgery, making her a vital voice for students and clinicians interested in surgical innovation and patient-centered outcomes.
