About

Dr. Graziana Carleo is a leading figure in thoracic surgery, with a focused expertise in minimally invasive techniques for mediastinal pathology, particularly thymectomy. Her major contributions center on the comparative effectiveness of robotic versus traditional open surgery for thymic neoplasms, especially in patients with myasthenia gravis. Through a landmark national multicenter study (2024, 7 citations), Dr. Carleo provided critical evidence that robotic thymectomy offers comparable surgical, neurological, and oncological outcomes to open sternotomy, challenging long-held standards and advancing the adoption of robotic approaches. Her subsequent work on robotic thymectomy for large thymomas (2025, 4 citations) further extends these findings, demonstrating the feasibility and safety of robotic techniques even in complex, high-volume cases. With a growing citation impact, Dr. Carleo’s research is shaping clinical guidelines and improving recovery for patients. Her dedication to rigorous, multicenter collaboration underscores her role as a pioneer in modern thoracic surgery, bridging innovation and patient-centered care.
