About
Roberto Coppola is a leading figure in minimally invasive gastrointestinal surgery, with a particular focus on colorectal and pancreatic procedures. His research has been instrumental in advancing the field of robotic-assisted surgery, notably through pioneering work with the Hugo™ RAS system. He led the first worldwide reports on rectal resections and full robotic cholecystectomies using this platform, demonstrating its feasibility and optimal setup. Dr. Coppola’s major contributions include leading the MIRCAST study (42 citations), a key investigation into anastomotic techniques during right colectomy, and his work with the European E-MIPS registry (21 citations) and the Italian IGOMIPS registry, which together provide crucial data on the outcomes and daily practice of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery across Europe. His research, cited over 100 times, has helped define best practices for conversion during laparoscopic colorectal surgery and has established national registries that shape surgical standards. Through these efforts, Dr. Coppola has significantly impacted the adoption and refinement of minimally invasive techniques in general surgery.
