About

Dr. Marko Rojnica is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive robotic surgery for children, particularly through the application of novel single-port (SP) platforms. His major contributions center on demonstrating the safety, feasibility, and unique advantages of cutting-edge robotic systems—such as the Senhance and da Vinci SP—in pediatric populations, where spatial constraints pose significant challenges. His 2023 study on the Senhance platform (17 citations) provides early evidence of its utility in infants and children, while his 2021 case report (14 citations) describes the first single-port robotic splenectomy for pyruvate kinase deficiency in a five-year-old, marking a surgical milestone. Additionally, his 2022 assessment of the da Vinci SP for adolescent cholecystectomy (12 citations) highlights improved maneuverability in confined workspaces. With over 40 combined citations for these key works, Dr. Rojnica’s research is shaping the future of pediatric robotic surgery, offering safer, less invasive options for young patients. His work is essential reading for surgeons and trainees interested in the evolving interface between robotics and pediatric care.
