About

Valerio Fusca is a pioneering surgeon and researcher at the forefront of minimally invasive endocrine surgery, with a primary focus on robotic-assisted adrenalectomy and the clinical translation of single-port platforms. His most influential work provides the first pooled analysis of adrenalectomy performed with the Da Vinci Single-Port (DV-SP) robotic system—a landmark systematic review and meta-analysis published in 2025, which has already garnered 6 citations. By synthesizing early evidence from a systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, Ovid, and Web of Science, Fusca critically evaluated perioperative outcomes, demonstrating the feasibility and safety of the DV-SP approach for adrenal resections. His contributions are vital for surgeons adopting next-generation robotic platforms, offering data-driven guidance on operative times, blood loss, and complication rates. Fusca’s research directly addresses the gap in evidence for single-port robotic surgery, positioning him as a key voice in the evolution of scarless, minimally invasive endocrine procedures. His work is essential reading for residents and specialists seeking to understand the current capabilities and limitations of single-port robotics in adrenal surgery.
