About
Raffaello Mancini is a surgeon at the forefront of robotic and minimally invasive oncologic surgery, with a focused expertise in the treatment of gastric cancer and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). His major contributions center on enhancing surgical precision and safety through the integration of advanced technologies. Most notably, Mancini pioneered the use of Indocyanine Green (ICG) near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging to guide lymph node dissection during robotic subtotal gastrectomy, a technique that allows for real-time, intraoperative visualization of tumor-draining lymph nodes. His seminal work on this topic, published in 2020, has garnered 30 citations, underscoring its impact on the field. He has also advanced robotic resection for gastric GISTs, demonstrating its safety and oncological efficacy. Beyond the operating room, Mancini is exploring the role of telemedicine in postoperative care, as evidenced by his 2021 study on home monitoring after robotic colorectal cancer surgery. His innovative use of fluorescence imaging extends to esophageal surgery, where he has applied it to intraoperatively assess myotomy during the robotic Heller-Dor procedure for achalasia. Through these efforts, Mancini is defining a new standard for precision, safety, and patient-centered care in robotic surgical oncology.
