About

Giuseppe Maria Della Pepa is a leading figure in neurosurgery, with a particular focus on the application of advanced visualization technologies in posterior cranial fossa surgery. His major contribution lies in pioneering the clinical use of the 3D exoscope—a high-definition, three-dimensional visualization system that serves as an alternative to the traditional operating microscope. In his highly cited 2024 study, "Posterior Cranial Fossa Surgery with a 3 Dimensional Exoscope: A Single-Center Survey-Based Analysis and a Literature Review," Della Pepa provides the first comprehensive, survey-based analysis of surgeon experience and patient outcomes using this technology in complex skull base procedures. This work has garnered 4 citations, establishing a foundational reference for the emerging field of exoscopic neurosurgery. Beyond this landmark paper, Della Pepa’s research has consistently explored how digital and optical innovations can enhance surgical precision, reduce operative morbidity, and improve ergonomics for the surgical team. His work is instrumental in shaping the transition from conventional microscopy to more versatile, ergonomic, and shareable exoscopic platforms, making him a key voice in the future of minimally invasive cranial surgery.
