About
Tullio Piardi is a pioneering surgeon at the forefront of cybernetic and minimally invasive surgery, with a focus on hepatobiliary and pancreatic oncology. His major contributions lie in integrating advanced technologies—robotics, augmented reality (AR), and real-time fluorescence guidance—into complex procedures like liver segmentectomy and duodenopancreatectomy. Piardi’s landmark 2014 paper on “cybernetic surgery” (178 citations) introduced AR-assisted robotic liver resection, while his work on robotic pancreatic surgery helped shape the internationally validated EGUMIPS guidelines (117 citations). He has demonstrated the feasibility of robotic liver resection as a bridge to transplantation and for challenging cases involving major vessels or elderly patients. More recently, Piardi has explored the metaverse for telementoring, reflecting his commitment to pushing surgical boundaries. With over 450 total citations across his top papers, his research has significantly advanced the safety and precision of robotic surgery, particularly for hepatocellular carcinoma. Piardi’s innovative techniques and leadership in evidence-based guidelines have established him as a key figure in the evolution of minimally invasive surgical practice.
