About

Elena Bonati is a pioneering surgeon specializing in the advancement of minimally invasive thyroid surgery. Her research focuses on comparing emerging surgical techniques to optimize patient safety and recovery outcomes. In her most cited work, "Mini-invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy vs robot-assisted transaxillary thyroidectomy: analysis and comparison of safety and outcomes" (2024), Bonati provides a critical evaluation of two leading approaches—video-assisted and robotic transaxillary thyroidectomy. By analyzing their respective safety profiles and postoperative results, she offers evidence-based guidance for selecting the most appropriate technique, directly impacting clinical decision-making in endocrine surgery. While her citation count is still growing, this landmark study has already garnered attention for its rigorous comparative methodology and practical implications. Bonati’s contributions are particularly valuable for surgeons and researchers seeking to refine thyroidectomy protocols, reduce scarring, and shorten recovery times. Her work underscores a commitment to innovation in surgical practice, positioning her as a rising voice in the field of head and neck surgery.
