About
Dr. Paolo Goffredo is a surgical oncologist whose research centers on minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex abdominal cancers and metabolic surgery. His landmark 2015 study on minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy for cancer, analyzing 1,733 patients and accumulating 59 citations, provided critical population-level evidence that these approaches offer favorable oncologic outcomes. Goffredo has also advanced the field through his work on malignant pheochromocytoma, demonstrating the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive surgery for this rare tumor. His investigations into optimizing bariatric surgery outcomes, particularly the impact of preoperative hemoglobin A1c levels, have helped refine patient selection and perioperative care. More recently, he has explored the equivalency of open, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches for technically demanding procedures like ileal pouch-anal anastomosis, while also contributing to surgical education through surveys on robotic training curricula. His ongoing work on splenic flexure adenocarcinoma addresses a controversial area in colorectal surgery. With over 100 total citations, Goffredo’s research consistently bridges the gap between surgical innovation and evidence-based practice, making him a respected voice in the evolution of minimally invasive surgical oncology.
