About

Stefano Margaritora is a leading thoracic surgeon whose research focuses on robotic-assisted surgery for thymic tumours and lung cancer, as well as the surgical management of myasthenia gravis (MG). His major contributions include demonstrating the feasibility and oncological safety of robotic thymectomy for thymic tumours through a large, nationwide multicentre study (2024, 14 citations), which provides robust evidence for this minimally invasive approach. He has also investigated the benefits of thymectomy in severe generalized MG (2023, 7 citations), challenging conventional wisdom by showing that even high-risk patients can achieve meaningful neurological improvement. Additionally, his narrative review on technical innovations in robotic lung cancer surgery (2025, 3 citations) highlights how robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) reduces blood loss and hospital stays while improving recovery. With a career dedicated to advancing minimally invasive techniques, Margaritora’s work has shaped modern thoracic oncology and neuromuscular surgery, earning him recognition as a pioneer in robotic thymectomy and complex thoracic procedures.
