About

Davide De Sio is a surgical researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive and oncologic surgery, particularly in the fields of hepatobiliary and colorectal procedures. His major contributions center on evaluating surgical outcomes in high-risk and elderly populations, as well as assessing the oncologic efficacy of robotic techniques. Notably, his highly cited 2021 study on pancreaticoduodenectomy in octogenarians (23 citations) underscores the critical role of “biological age” over chronological age in predicting clinical outcomes, offering valuable guidance for patient selection in complex surgeries. Additionally, his 2020 work on robotic rectal resection (12 citations) provides important evidence on the oncologic effectiveness of robotic surgery for rectal cancer, a topic with limited and conflicting data. Through these studies, De Sio has helped refine surgical decision-making and highlighted the potential of robotic approaches to improve cancer care. His research is particularly impactful for surgeons and oncologists seeking to balance operative risk with long-term benefits, making him a notable voice in the evolving landscape of surgical oncology.
