About

Epameinondas Gousopoulos is a pioneering reconstructive surgeon whose work is redefining the boundaries of lymphatic microsurgery through robotic assistance. His research centers on the application of robotic microsurgical systems—particularly the Symani system—to perform supermicrosurgical procedures for lymphedema treatment and central lymphatic reconstruction. Gousopoulos led the first-in-human use of the Symani system for lympho-venous and arterial anastomosis, a landmark contribution that has garnered 89 citations. His subsequent studies demonstrate how robotic assistance enables access to deep anatomical planes and facilitates the manipulation of increasingly smaller vessels, pushing the limits of reconstructive surgery. With over 180 total citations, his work has established robotic-assisted lymphatic microsurgery as a viable and transformative approach. Notably, he has also explored the potential of these techniques in neurological disorders, linking the glymphatic system to central nervous system pathology. Gousopoulos’s achievements include pioneering the use of robotics in central lymphatic flow disorders and advancing the field of supermicrosurgery, making him a leading figure in the integration of robotics into plastic and reconstructive surgery.
