About
Salomone Di Saverio is a pioneering surgeon and researcher at the forefront of minimally invasive and robotic surgery, with a particular focus on emergency and oncologic settings. His work has fundamentally advanced the application of robotic platforms—from the da Vinci to the new CMR Versius—in acute care surgery, colorectal resections, and complex hepatopancreaticobiliary procedures. Di Saverio has been instrumental in establishing evidence-based guidelines through the World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES), authoring landmark position papers on robotic surgery in emergencies and training curricula for minimally invasive emergency digestive surgery. His research also explores cutting-edge intraoperative technologies, including indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging for optimizing vision during robotic liver and rectal cancer surgery. With highly cited works—including a 2022 WSES position paper on robotic emergency surgery (136 citations) and multiple meta-analyses comparing robotic versus laparoscopic approaches for colorectal and pancreatic surgery—his contributions have shaped global surgical practice. Di Saverio’s work on artificial intelligence in emergency trauma surgery (the ARIES project) further underscores his commitment to integrating innovation into surgical care, making him a leading voice in the evolution of modern surgery.
