About
Paolo Mangione is a leading figure in the advancement of spinal surgery, whose research is sharply focused on the intersection of robotics, precision, and patient outcomes. His primary contributions lie in investigating the comparative efficacy of robot-assisted versus freehand techniques for pedicle screw placement in thoraco-lumbar spine procedures. Mangione’s landmark work, the ROBARTHRODESE study protocol, a single-centre randomized controlled trial, directly addresses the critical question of whether robotic systems can demonstrably improve screw placement accuracy while reducing radiation exposure and hospital length of stay. This foundational study, already garnering 3 citations since its 2024 publication, sets the stage for evidence-based adoption of surgical robotics. Beyond this pivotal trial, his broader research portfolio systematically evaluates how technological integration can minimize surgical invasiveness and enhance recovery. Mangione’s work is not merely technical; it is a rigorous, patient-centered inquiry into the future of orthopaedic surgery. For students and researchers, his career exemplifies how methodical clinical trials can translate cutting-edge engineering into tangible, safer outcomes for patients undergoing complex spinal procedures.
