About

Giulia Fusi is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work centers on expanding the frontiers of minimally invasive surgery for the most vulnerable patients—infants and children with complex congenital conditions. Her major contributions lie in demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic surgery in pediatric populations, particularly for low-weight children, where traditional approaches pose heightened risks. Her landmark study, “Low Weight Child: Can It Be Considered a Limit of Robotic Surgery?” (40 citations), challenged existing paradigms by showing that robotic techniques can be successfully applied even in the smallest patients. Fusi has also advanced the field through comparative analyses of robotic versus laparoscopic approaches for pain management in pediatric minimally invasive surgery (21 citations) and for total oesophago-gastric dissociation in neurologically impaired children. Her international, multi-center work on robotic uretero-vesical junction repair further underscores her role in standardizing complex urological procedures. By systematically proving that robotic surgery offers technical advantages without compromising safety, Fusi is reshaping surgical care for children, making her a leading voice in pediatric robotic surgery and a key figure for students and researchers interested in the intersection of technology and pediatric surgical innovation.
