About
Pasquale Scognamiglio is a leading figure in the advancement of robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, with a primary focus on complex gastrointestinal and oncological procedures. His research centers on refining surgical techniques for rectal, esophageal, hepatic, and pancreatic resections, aiming to improve both oncological outcomes and postoperative quality of life. A major contribution is his landmark meta-analysis on robotic rectal resection, which demonstrated that the robotic approach significantly preserves anorectal function compared to conventional methods, a critical finding for rectal cancer patients. This work, cited 34 times, has helped shift the clinical conversation toward functional preservation. Scognamiglio further advanced the field through a multicenter study comparing hybrid and totally robot-assisted esophagectomy techniques, providing vital data on the safety and efficacy of these evolving approaches. His comprehensive review on the state of the art in robotic liver, pancreas, and esophageal surgery synthesizes the latest evidence, guiding surgeons in adopting these challenging technologies. With a growing citation impact, Scognamiglio’s work is instrumental in defining the future of minimally invasive visceral surgery, balancing technical innovation with patient-centered outcomes.
