About
Jacopo Martellucci is a leading figure in the advancement of minimally invasive and robotic surgery for pelvic floor disorders and colorectal cancer. His research centers on standardizing complex surgical techniques, particularly robotic ventral mesh rectopexy (RVMR) for rectal prolapse and robot-assisted pelvic floor reconstruction. Martellucci has driven the field toward consensus, authoring two landmark Delphi studies—including a 2023 international expert consensus and a forward-looking 2025 update—that establish best practices for preoperative evaluation, patient selection, and procedural technique. These works, cited over a dozen times, are shaping global surgical protocols. He also explores the frontiers of surgical innovation, from the role of the metaverse in operative planning to the expanding indications for minimally invasive surgery in locally advanced rectal cancer, where he advocates for multivisceral resection and pelvic exenteration. By bridging evidence-based standardization with futuristic technology, Martellucci is defining the next generation of pelvic surgery.
