About

Patrizio Petrone is a leading figure in robotic-assisted abdominal wall reconstruction and bariatric surgery, with a career defined by advancing minimally invasive techniques. His seminal work, "Ascending the Learning Curve of Robotic Abdominal Wall Reconstruction" (27 citations), established a framework for mastering robotic transversus abdominis release (TAR), demonstrating reduced wound complications and shorter hospital stays compared to open repair. He further explored long-term outcomes in robotic hernia repair (8 citations) and tackled complex cases like paraesophageal hiatal hernia repair (22 citations) and cholecystoduodenal fistula repair (6 citations). Petrone has also made critical contributions to bariatric surgery safety, notably in patients with congestive heart failure (7 citations) and those on anticoagulation for venous thromboembolism (2 citations). His work on rare conditions, such as arcuate line hernia (2 citations), underscores his commitment to addressing surgical challenges. With a focus on evidence-based, patient-centered outcomes, Petrone’s research continues to shape best practices in robotic surgery and metabolic care, earning him recognition as a pioneer in his field.
