About

Selman Uranues is a leading figure in minimally invasive surgery, with a particular focus on advancing laparoscopic techniques in two challenging domains: pancreatic surgery and trauma care. His work has been instrumental in demonstrating the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy, showing that this approach reduces blood loss and shortens hospital stays while maintaining oncologic standards. His comprehensive 2016 review on laparoscopic pancreatic resection has become a key reference, cited 16 times, for surgeons navigating the slow adoption of minimal access methods in pancreatic surgery. Beyond elective procedures, Uranues has contributed to the evolving role of laparoscopy in trauma, as seen in his 2010 paper on laparoscopic procedures in trauma care. By systematically evaluating these applications, he has helped expand the boundaries of what is possible with minimally invasive techniques, offering patients less invasive options even in acute settings. His work continues to influence surgical practice, encouraging broader acceptance of laparoscopy in complex and emergency scenarios.
