About
Enrico Felici is a leading pediatric surgeon whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive and robotic techniques for the surgical management of Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). His major contributions lie in demonstrating the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of robotic-assisted procedures for this complex congenital condition. Notably, his 2019 study on the "Totally robotic soave pull-through procedure" detailed lessons from 11 consecutive pediatric patients, establishing a foundational protocol that has garnered 36 citations. Felici has further expanded the field by addressing the challenging scenario of reoperative surgery; his 2020 work on "Minimally Invasive Redo Pull-Throughs" (17 citations) provides crucial guidance for managing postoperative obstructive symptoms without resorting to conventional laparotomy. His cumulative experience, summarized in a 2022 unicentric series of 31 robotic procedures (13 citations), underscores his role as a pioneer in pediatric robotic surgery. Through these high-impact studies, Felici has not only refined surgical approaches but also significantly reduced the invasiveness of HSCR treatment, improving recovery outcomes for young patients. His work continues to shape best practices in pediatric colorectal surgery.
