About
Paolo Vercellini is a leading figure in the surgical and clinical management of endometriosis, with a career dedicated to challenging dogma and improving patient outcomes through evidence-based practice. His research centers on the critical appraisal of surgical interventions, particularly the role of robotic-assisted laparoscopy, which he has questioned as a costly innovation without proven superiority over traditional techniques. Vercellini’s landmark work, the ETIC* position statement “When more is not better,” outlines 10 ‘don’ts’ in endometriosis management, advocating for the de-implementation of ineffective or harmful practices—a paper that has garnered 62 citations and reshaped clinical guidelines. He has also pioneered the exploration of artificial intelligence in endometriosis and adenomyosis care, asking whether machines can ever be worse than humans, a question that has already attracted 15 citations in 2024. With a career spanning decades at the University of Milan, Vercellini is known for his sharp, provocative analyses that prioritize patient safety over technological hype, making him a trusted voice in reproductive medicine. His work continues to influence how clinicians think about “less is more” in complex gynecologic care.
