About

Mirko Bertozzi is a pediatric surgeon whose research sits at the intersection of minimally invasive techniques, robotic-assisted surgery, and pediatric oncology. His work has made meaningful contributions to advancing surgical innovation for some of the most vulnerable patient populations, including children with cancer and neurological impairments. Bertozzi's most influential contribution — a 2013 multicenter survey on work-related upper limb musculoskeletal disorders in pediatric laparoscopic surgeons (77 citations) — highlights his attention not only to patient outcomes but also to the occupational wellbeing of surgical teams, a perspective rarely explored in the literature. His subsequent research has focused heavily on robotic-assisted pediatric surgery, including a widely recognized 2022 expert consensus document co-developed with Italian surgical and anesthesia societies, offering much-needed international guidance for robotic procedures in children. Bertozzi has also systematically examined the safety and feasibility of robotic and video-assisted thoracoscopic techniques in pediatric oncology, contributing essential early-stage evidence in an underexplored field. His more recent work addresses quality of life outcomes following fundoplication surgery and gynecologic robotic procedures in children. Together, his publications reflect a career dedicated to refining minimally invasive pediatric surgery through rigorous evidence and collaborative, multidisciplinary inquiry.
