About
Federico Selvaggi is a leading figure in minimally invasive surgical oncology, with a primary focus on colorectal and hepatopancreatobiliary procedures. His major contributions center on advancing simultaneous, minimally invasive treatments for complex, multi-site cancers, particularly colorectal neoplasms with synchronous liver metastases. His seminal 2016 work, which has garnered 32 citations, systematically analyzed perioperative and oncological outcomes of laparoscopic and robotic-assisted combined colectomy with hepatectomy, demonstrating that these approaches can be safe and effective when performed by experienced teams. More recently, Selvaggi has turned his attention to standardizing minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy. His 2022 publication meticulously maps the surgical maneuvers and technical pitfalls for laparoscopic removal of the pancreatic tail, aiming to create reproducible protocols for benign and borderline malignant neoplasms. Through these efforts, Selvaggi is helping to define best practices in complex, multi-quadrant cancer surgery, reducing patient morbidity by avoiding staged, open procedures. His work is essential reading for surgeons seeking to expand the boundaries of what is possible with minimally invasive techniques in challenging oncologic scenarios.
