About
Massimo Piergiuseppe Franchi is a leading gynecologic oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive and robotic surgical techniques for the treatment of gynecologic cancers. His major contributions center on optimizing surgical safety and oncologic outcomes, particularly in endometrial and ovarian cancer. Franchi’s landmark systematic review and meta-analysis on intrauterine manipulator use during hysterectomy for endometrial cancer (27 citations) critically evaluated the risk of tumor dissemination, providing essential guidance for surgical practice. He has also pioneered the application of robotic surgery in complex settings, including female-to-male transition surgery and sentinel node biopsy for early-stage endometrial cancer using the next-generation Versius® robotic system. His work comparing laparotomy to minimally invasive surgery for ovarian cancer recurrence (24 citations) has helped define the role of secondary cytoreduction. With a growing portfolio of highly cited papers, Franchi is recognized for driving innovation in surgical oncology, balancing technological advancement with rigorous evidence-based evaluation to improve patient outcomes.
