About

Ettore Cicinelli is a pioneering figure in gynecologic surgery, with a research focus that bridges advanced robotic techniques and the management of pelvic organ prolapse and cervical cancer. His most influential work includes a landmark multicenter study comparing robotic versus laparoscopic radical hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy in early cervical cancer patients, which has garnered 96 citations and helped shape modern surgical protocols. Cicinelli’s contributions extend to innovative approaches for apical prolapse, as demonstrated in his work on robotic sacrocolpopexy using autologous fascia lata—a technique that reduces morbidity by avoiding synthetic mesh. He has also refined lateral pelvic organ prolapse suspension for multicompartment vaginal vault prolapse, addressing rare but serious complications associated with traditional sacrocolpopexy. With over 100 citations across his key papers, Cicinelli’s impact is evident in his ability to translate complex surgical challenges into reproducible, minimally invasive solutions. His achievements underscore a career dedicated to improving patient outcomes through precision robotics, making him a leading voice in the evolution of gynecologic surgery.
