About

Giuseppe Cortese is a distinguished researcher whose work sits at the intersection of pediatric anesthesia and minimally invasive surgical techniques, with a particular focus on laparoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures in pediatric urology. His research addresses a critical and evolving area of modern medicine, where advancing surgical technologies demand equally sophisticated anesthetic protocols tailored specifically to young patients. Cortese's most cited contribution, "Pediatric anesthesia for minimally invasive surgery in pediatric urology" (2017, 22 citations), provided essential guidance on managing anesthetic challenges unique to CO₂ insufflation during both conventional and robotic laparoscopy — work that has become an important reference for practitioners navigating this specialized field. Building on this foundation, his 2022 consensus paper, developed collaboratively with the Italian Society of Pediatric and Neonatal Anesthesia and Intensive Care (SARNePI) and the Italian Society of Pediatric Surgery (SICP), demonstrated his leadership in shaping international best practice standards for pediatric robotic surgery — a landmark effort given the scarcity of formal guidance documents in this domain. With growing citation counts reflecting real-world clinical impact, Cortese's work is helping to standardize care and improve safety outcomes for some of the most vulnerable surgical patients. His contributions make him an important voice in advancing evidence-based pediatric perioperative medicine.
