About

Dr. Giovanni Esposito is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work is reshaping minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for children. His research centers on three synergistic frontiers: fluorescence-guided surgery using indocyanine green (ICG), advanced robotic-assisted techniques, and the emerging integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into pediatric surgical care. Dr. Esposito’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety and efficacy of ICG-guided near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) in laparoscopic and robotic procedures, a technique that enhances real-time visualization of critical structures. His landmark 2020 study on this topic has garnered 85 citations, establishing a foundational protocol for pediatric MIS. He has further innovated by combining ICG fluorescence with a novel perirenal fat wadding technique for treating simple renal cysts, and by comparing robotic-assisted versus conventional laparoscopic varicocelectomy to optimize lymphatic-sparing outcomes. Most recently, Dr. Esposito has ventured into the application of AI in robotic pediatric surgery, outlining future directions for this transformative field. With a growing body of work that consistently pushes the boundaries of precision and safety, Dr. Esposito is a leading voice in the evolution of pediatric urologic surgery.
