About

Dr. Max Buttarelli is a leading French surgeon whose work has significantly advanced the application of robotic technology in oncologic surgery, particularly within gynecologic and breast oncology. His research focuses on refining minimally invasive techniques to improve patient outcomes and expand the boundaries of what is surgically possible. Dr. Buttarelli’s landmark 2008 study on robot-assisted laparoscopy in gynecologic oncology (53 citations) helped establish the foundational safety and feasibility of this approach for complex pelvic cancers. He is also a pioneer in breast surgery, evidenced by his highly impactful 2021 prospective study comparing robotic versus conventional nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction (36 citations). This work demonstrated the superior aesthetic and functional outcomes of the robotic approach, setting a new standard in the field. Further demonstrating his expertise in advanced pelvic surgery, Dr. Buttarelli has also explored the role of robotic laparoscopy in managing recurrent pelvic cancers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he provided critical data on the reduction of oncologic surgical activity, helping to guide resource allocation and patient prioritization during a global health crisis.
