About
Dr. Elisa Stasi is a pioneering paediatric surgeon whose work centres on minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgical techniques for rare paediatric tumours. Her most notable contribution is the first reported case of robotic-assisted distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy in a child for a solid pseudopapillary tumour (SPT)—a rare, low-grade malignant pancreatic neoplasm primarily affecting young women. This landmark 2023 study, which has already garnered 3 citations, demonstrates the feasibility and safety of robotic surgery in paediatric oncology, offering a less invasive alternative to traditional open procedures. Dr. Stasi’s work addresses a critical gap in surgical management for SPT, which typically occurs in the pancreatic tail and requires complete resection for cure. By advancing robotic platforms in paediatric populations, she is helping to reduce recovery times and surgical morbidity. Her research not only expands the boundaries of paediatric robotic surgery but also provides a template for treating other rare abdominal tumours in children. Dr. Stasi’s contributions are shaping the future of paediatric surgical oncology, inspiring a new generation of surgeons to embrace innovation in the operating room.
