About
Francesco Puccetti is a leading surgical oncologist whose research focuses on improving outcomes in upper gastrointestinal (GI) and esophageal cancer surgery. His major contributions center on the management of complex postoperative complications and the standardization of surgical training. Notably, his work on the incidence and treatment of mediastinal leaks after esophagectomy, detailed in the multicenter MuMeLe 2 study, provides critical data for reducing mortality in high-risk patients. Additionally, Puccetti has been instrumental in shaping the future of surgical education, co-authoring the ESSO core curriculum updates for gastro-esophageal cancers, which define current best practices and training standards. With his research garnering early citations, Puccetti’s impact is already evident in both clinical guidelines and operative protocols. His dedication to evidence-based surgery and collaborative, multi-institutional research positions him as a key figure in advancing the safety and efficacy of esophagogastric cancer care.
