About

Dr. Matthew Triano is a leading spine surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing robotic-assisted spinal surgery, with a particular focus on improving the accuracy and efficiency of pedicle screw placement. His major contributions include demonstrating that robot-assisted percutaneous pedicle screw placement achieves significantly higher accuracy than traditional fluoroscopy-guided methods, as shown in his highly cited 2020 study (42 citations). He has also pioneered techniques for single-position lateral lumbar interbody fusion, comparing lateral versus prone approaches for robotic screw placement (22 citations). Dr. Triano’s research extends to complex revisions, including robot-assisted sacroiliac joint fusion using novel S2-alar-iliac trajectories. With over 700 thoracolumbar screws analyzed in his case series, his work has established benchmarks for precision in spinal instrumentation. His findings are widely referenced by surgeons seeking to reduce radiation exposure and improve patient outcomes, making him a key figure in the evolution of minimally invasive, robot-guided spinal surgery.
