About

Giovanni Cobellis has established himself as a leading figure in pediatric robotic and minimally invasive surgery, with his research concentrated on advancing surgical techniques for complex urological conditions in children. Based at Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria delle Marche in Italy, Cobellis has made significant contributions to the field through pioneering work in robot-assisted pyeloplasty, a procedure to correct ureteropelvic junction obstruction, and the combined treatment of renal anomalies and calculi in pediatric patients. His most-cited work (24 citations) demonstrates innovative approaches to simultaneously addressing urinary obstructions and kidney stones in children using robotic and laser technologies. Cobellis has also played a central role in shaping national policy and practice, co-authoring Italy's epidemiological survey of pediatric robotic surgery (21 citations) and contributing to expert consensus guidelines adopted by leading Italian surgical and anesthesiology societies (15 citations). His international collaborative studies have helped establish outcome benchmarks for robotic procedures in young children, including those weighing under 15 kg. Beyond technical surgery, Cobellis has explored patient wellbeing, investigating how humanoid robots can reduce preoperative anxiety in children — reflecting a holistic approach to pediatric care that distinguishes his research portfolio.
