About
Kevin K. Roggin is a leading surgical oncologist whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for complex hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) and gastric cancers. His work has been pivotal in redefining the safety and efficacy of robotic and laparoscopic approaches. Roggin’s landmark studies, including propensity-matched NSQIP analyses, have demonstrated that robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) can significantly reduce the risk of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula compared to open surgery—a finding with over 40 citations. He has also identified key risk factors for complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy, contributing to improved patient selection and perioperative care. Beyond HPB surgery, Roggin has explored minimally invasive gastric cancer resection, emphasizing the critical role of surgical technique in oncologic outcomes. A dedicated educator, he developed a two-week robotic surgery curriculum for general surgery residents, helping to train the next generation of minimally invasive surgeons. With multiple highly cited papers and a focus on evidence-based innovation, Roggin’s work continues to shape safer, more effective surgical practices in complex abdominal oncology.
