About
Omar M. Ghanem is a leading figure in metabolic and bariatric surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted techniques and revisional procedures. His research critically advances the field by comparing surgical approaches to optimize patient outcomes, particularly for complex cases involving concurrent hiatal hernia repair. Ghanem’s work on the trajectory of revisional bariatric surgery—from open to laparoscopic to robotic—highlights the evolution of minimally invasive methods, addressing the 15–20% of sleeve gastrectomy patients who require secondary interventions. His 2022 propensity score matching analysis of the MBSAQIP database (31 citations) provides robust evidence on the safety and efficacy of robotic versus laparoscopic approaches, influencing clinical guidelines. With a growing citation impact, Ghanem’s contributions are pivotal for surgeons navigating the challenges of obesity treatment, emphasizing precision and innovation in surgical care.
