About
Dr. Marianna Capuano is a leading figure in the advancement of minimally invasive surgical techniques, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted colorectal and foregut surgery. Her work is distinguished by a commitment to improving patient outcomes through precision technology. Her most impactful study, a monocentric experience comparing robotic versus laparoscopic colorectal surgery in elderly patients, garnered 35 citations and demonstrated that the robotic approach significantly reduces recovery time, offering a crucial benefit for this vulnerable population. Dr. Capuano has also made notable contributions to the treatment of achalasia, where her state-of-the-art review and clinical experience advocate for robotic Heller myotomy with partial fundoplication. She has shown this technique to be not only safe and ergonomically superior for the surgeon but also associated with a reduced rate of esophageal mucosal perforation, a critical intraoperative complication. By championing these advanced robotic approaches, Dr. Capuano is actively shaping the future of surgical care, enhancing both patient safety and recovery.
