About
Dr. Stefania Querciagrossa is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work is reshaping the landscape of minimally invasive surgery for children. Her research focuses on the safety, feasibility, and expanding applications of robotic-assisted surgery in pediatric populations, particularly for complex urological and thoracic conditions. A major contribution is her demonstration that retroperitoneal robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty can be safely performed as day surgery, challenging traditional inpatient protocols and improving recovery for children with kidney obstructions. Her prospective studies have also been critical in establishing the safety profile of multidisciplinary robotic programs, meticulously documenting adverse events and morbidity to guide best practices. With her most-cited papers accumulating over 60 citations, including her influential 2020 work on robotic lobectomy for severe bronchiectasis, Dr. Querciagrossa is a leading voice in pediatric surgical innovation. She has also advanced perioperative care by developing dedicated anesthetic protocols and using near-infrared spectroscopy to monitor cerebral and renal oxygenation during surgery, ensuring that new technologies are implemented with the highest regard for patient safety.
