About

Ioannis Mamais is a leading researcher in the field of minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgery, with a particular focus on gynecologic and general surgical applications. His work has been instrumental in evaluating the clinical efficacy and economic viability of emerging surgical technologies. Mamais’s most influential contribution is a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis on robotic-assisted myomectomy, which has garnered 113 citations and provides critical evidence comparing robotic outcomes to laparoscopic and open approaches. He further advanced the field with a seminal 2016 cost-assessment study (89 citations) that systematically analyzed the financial implications of robotic surgery in general procedures, offering essential data for healthcare decision-making. Mamais has also pioneered research into innovative surgical materials, notably through his 2014 study on knotless barbed sutures in gynecologic surgery (60 citations), which demonstrated their utility in facilitating laparoendoscopic operations. His work bridges clinical outcomes with economic analysis, making him a key voice in the debate over the adoption of robotic technologies. Through his rigorous systematic reviews, Mamais has provided surgeons and policymakers with the evidence needed to navigate the evolving landscape of surgical innovation.
