About
Paolo Strignano is a leading figure in the field of upper gastrointestinal surgery, with a focused expertise in the surgical management of esophageal cancer. His primary research centers on advancing minimally invasive esophagectomy, particularly through the application of robotic technology. Dr. Strignano’s major contributions include pioneering work on Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy (RAMIE), where he has been instrumental in defining global best practices. His landmark international multicenter study, "Worldwide Techniques and Outcomes in Robot-assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy," with 73 citations, provided crucial, generalizable insights into RAMIE techniques and outcomes, moving beyond the limitations of single-center data. He has further refined surgical approaches through comparative analyses of hybrid versus fully robotic techniques, and his investigations into the role of thoracic duct lymph node dissection have advanced the understanding of metastatic patterns in Western esophageal cancer patients. His most recent work, from 2025, tackles the critical issue of anastomotic leakage, evaluating optimal techniques to improve patient outcomes. With a career dedicated to rigorous, multinational, and collaborative research, Dr. Strignano is a key contributor to the evolution of safer and more effective surgical treatments for esophageal cancer.
