About
Maurizio Amato is a leading figure in the advancement of minimally invasive oncologic and general surgery, with a particular focus on the geriatric and very elderly patient population. His research centers on the safety, efficacy, and outcomes of robot-assisted surgical techniques, challenging conventional age-related barriers to complex procedures. Amato’s most cited work, a 2016 study and literature review, provides critical evidence that robotic surgery can be performed safely in patients over 75, offering reduced recovery times and lower complication rates. This contribution has been cited 79 times, underscoring its influence on clinical guidelines and surgical decision-making for an aging global population. Beyond this landmark paper, his broader portfolio explores the integration of advanced technology into routine surgical practice, aiming to expand access to high-quality care for vulnerable groups. Amato’s work not only advances technical surgical knowledge but also advocates for a more inclusive approach to operative candidacy, making him a pivotal voice in the evolution of modern, patient-centered surgery.
