About

Francesco Bona is a leading researcher in surgical outcomes, with a primary focus on comparing conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLS) and robot-assisted abdominal surgery (RAS). His most-cited work, a 2025 study on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), has garnered 11 citations and critically examines the rising use of RAS. Bona’s major contribution lies in identifying that patients undergoing RAS face a significantly higher incidence of PPCs compared to those receiving CLS—a finding that challenges assumptions about the superiority of robotic techniques. By rigorously analyzing objective clinical data, he provides actionable insights for surgeons and anesthesiologists to optimize patient selection and perioperative care. His research directly impacts clinical decision-making, emphasizing the need for balanced risk assessment in minimally invasive surgery. Bona’s work is essential reading for students and clinicians navigating the evolving landscape of surgical technology, highlighting that innovation must be paired with evidence-based scrutiny to improve patient safety.
