About
Dr. Egidio Miranda is a pioneering surgeon whose research focuses on advancing robot-assisted surgical techniques, particularly for complex and high-risk patient populations. His most impactful work, a 2016 study on robot-assisted surgery in elderly and very elderly populations undergoing oncologic and general procedures (79 citations), has become a cornerstone reference, demonstrating the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive robotics in frail patients who might otherwise be denied surgery. Dr. Miranda’s expertise extends to managing rare and anatomically challenging conditions, as evidenced by his 2019 case report on a robot-assisted Toupet fundoplication with cholecystectomy for a symptomatic giant hiatal hernia in a patient with situs viscerum inversus. This work showcases his ability to adapt advanced robotic platforms to correct congenital visceral malpositions, offering critical insights for surgeons facing similar anomalies. By systematically proving that robotic assistance can expand surgical candidacy and improve outcomes in elderly populations, Dr. Miranda has directly influenced perioperative protocols and encouraged broader adoption of robotics in geriatric surgery. His contributions continue to shape the frontier of minimally invasive care for the most vulnerable and anatomically unique patients.
