About

Enrico Gringeri is a leading figure in the advancement of minimally invasive hepatobiliary surgery, with a particular focus on robotic and laparoscopic techniques for complex liver and biliary tract diseases. His major contributions center on demonstrating the feasibility and safety of robotic approaches for traditionally open procedures, most notably in the management of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA). His pioneering 2021 case series on robotic hepatectomy and biliary reconstruction for pCCA (48 citations) challenged the standard of care by showing that a minimally invasive approach could achieve the necessary oncologic radicality, potentially reducing the severe morbidity and mortality rates—up to 27.5%—associated with open surgery. Gringeri’s impact is further evidenced by his leadership in the Italian “I Go MILS” registry (12 citations), a decade-long initiative that has become a crucial tool for disseminating and standardizing minimally invasive liver surgery across Italy. More recently, his multicentric propensity-score matched analysis comparing robotic versus laparoscopic resection for hepatocellular carcinoma in 647 patients (2025, 6 citations) provides high-level evidence guiding surgical decision-making. Through these works, Gringeri has not only advanced technical frontiers but also built a collaborative network that shapes national practice, making him a pivotal voice in the evolution of hepatobiliary surgery.
