About

Evangelos Felekouras is a leading figure in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, with a particular focus on advancing minimally invasive techniques. His research has fundamentally shaped the modern approach to complex procedures, especially through his pioneering work on robotic and laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. His most-cited paper, a systematic review on total robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (93 citations), has been instrumental in evaluating the safety and feasibility of this demanding operation. He has also made significant contributions to the comparative analysis of open versus minimally invasive approaches for pancreatic cancer, including a landmark study on robotic-assisted radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS). Beyond the pancreas, his work extends to refining the hepaticojejunostomy technique for biliary reconstruction and exploring minimally invasive lymphadenectomy in gynecologic oncology. With a career spanning over a decade, Felekouras’s research is characterized by rigorous systematic reviews and meta-analyses that provide high-level evidence for surgical decision-making. His ongoing work, including a recent network meta-analysis on pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in minimally invasive surgery, making him a vital resource for surgeons and researchers seeking to optimize patient outcomes.
