About

Michele Finotti is a pioneering surgeon whose research is reshaping the landscape of minimally invasive surgery, with a particular focus on robotic applications in hepatobiliary surgery and transplantation. His work critically examines the evolution of robotic techniques, demonstrating how they represent the natural progression of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for treating liver tumors. In his highly cited 2021 narrative review, which has garnered 32 citations, Finotti established a foundational framework for understanding the current and future role of robotics in liver surgery and transplantation. He has further advanced the field by exploring the controversial yet promising application of robotic techniques in living donor transplantation. Beyond hepatobiliary surgery, Finotti has made notable contributions to the emerging field of uterus transplantation. His 2023 study on graft hysterectomy using robotic-assisted techniques, part of the Dallas UtErus Transplant Study, showcases his ability to apply robotic precision to complex transplant procedures. With a research portfolio that bridges established surgical practices and cutting-edge transplant innovations, Finotti is a leading voice in the robotic surgery revolution.
