About
Hamzeh M. Halawani is a bariatric and minimally invasive surgeon whose work centers on complex metabolic surgery, with a particular focus on biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS) — one of the most technically demanding weight loss procedures available. His research has made meaningful contributions to the understanding of revisional bariatric surgery, having documented outcomes in patients requiring conversion from failed Roux-en-Y gastric bypass to BPD/DS, a challenging clinical scenario addressed in his most-cited work with 19 citations. Halawani has also advanced patient safety in this field by investigating venous thromboembolism risks following laparoscopic and robotic BPD/DS procedures, drawing on a decade of institutional experience to inform perioperative care protocols — work that has garnered 11 citations. His technical innovations extend to robotic surgery, where he has described a single-docking robotic approach to BPD/DS, contributing to the growing body of literature on surgical efficiency and precision. Collectively, his publications reflect a commitment to refining both the safety and reproducibility of high-complexity bariatric interventions, making his work particularly valuable to surgeons and researchers navigating the evolving landscape of metabolic surgery.
