About
Maurizio Degiuli is a leading figure in surgical oncology, with a primary focus on gastric and colorectal cancer. His most impactful work centers on the standardization of lymph node dissection, particularly the D2 procedure for gastric cancer, which he has helped establish as the global benchmark for both early and advanced disease. His seminal 2016 review on this topic, with 186 citations, remains a cornerstone reference for surgeons worldwide. Degiuli has also been at the forefront of advancing minimally invasive techniques, systematically evaluating laparoscopic and robotic approaches for right colon, transverse colon, and rectal cancers. He has led multicenter Italian collaborations, including the SICE network and the ColonDx Italian Group, to define best practices for lymphadenectomy in colon cancer. His recent meta-analysis on robotic rectal resection in elderly patients addresses a critical gap in surgical care for an aging population. Through his extensive body of work—encompassing over 250 citations—Degiuli has shaped modern surgical standards, bridging Eastern and Western practices while championing evidence-based, patient-centered innovation in gastrointestinal oncology.
