About

Piergiorgio Gamba is a leading figure in pediatric minimally invasive and robotic surgery, with a career dedicated to advancing safer, less invasive surgical options for children. His primary research focuses on pediatric urology, the application of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) in children, and the prevention of work-related injuries in surgical practice. Gamba’s major contributions include pioneering national surveys that have mapped the diffusion and outcomes of pediatric RAS in Italy, providing critical epidemiological data that has shaped clinical guidelines. He has also been instrumental in developing expert consensus statements on the anesthetic and surgical management of pediatric robotic procedures, addressing a critical gap in guidance for surgical teams. His work on instrumentation for pediatric minimally invasive surgery has helped refine techniques and improve surgical precision. Notably, his multicenter survey on work-related upper limb musculoskeletal disorders in pediatric laparoscopic surgeons (77 citations) highlights his commitment to surgeon well-being alongside patient outcomes. With over 150 total citations across his most influential papers, Gamba’s research has had a tangible impact on clinical practice, training, and safety standards in pediatric surgery.
