About
Sara Lauricella is a leading surgical researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive and robotic approaches in colorectal surgery, hernia repair, and the management of acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC). Her major contributions include conducting the first systematic review of the da Vinci® Single-Port system in colorectal surgery (2025, 16 citations), establishing its safety and feasibility, and performing a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing robotic versus laparoscopic TAPP inguinal hernia repair (2025, 4 citations), which clarifies short-term outcomes. She has also provided new insights into surgical management of ASUC (2024, 4 citations), highlighting persistent colectomy rates despite medical advances, and optimized robotic ventral hernia repair through an updated meta-analysis of preperitoneal versus retromuscular approaches (2025, 2 citations). Lauricella’s work is notable for its rigorous methodology—adhering to PRISMA guidelines—and its direct impact on clinical decision-making, helping surgeons adopt evidence-based robotic techniques. With over 26 citations across her most-cited papers, she is shaping the future of minimally invasive surgery, making her a key voice for students and researchers interested in surgical innovation and evidence synthesis.
