About

Gaspare Gulotta is a pioneering surgeon whose work has fundamentally advanced the field of robotic surgery, particularly in complex abdominal and endocrine procedures. His research focuses on the evolution, technical refinement, and clinical outcomes of robotic-assisted techniques compared to traditional laparoscopic and open approaches. Gulotta’s major contributions include landmark meta-analyses and comparative studies demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic adrenalectomy, hepatectomy, and pancreaticoduodenectomy. His 2017 meta-analysis on robotic versus laparoscopic adrenalectomy (63 citations) and his comprehensive historical review of robotic surgery (57 citations) are essential references in the field. He has also provided detailed technical descriptions of fully robotic left and right hepatectomies for malignant tumors, and has critically evaluated postoperative outcomes, lymph node dissection, and cost-effectiveness in robotic lobectomy for lung cancer. Through his work, Gulotta has helped transform robotic surgery from an “illusion to reality,” establishing it as a viable, minimally invasive option for patients worldwide. His ongoing dedication to refining these techniques continues to shape the future of surgical oncology.
