About

Vittorio Perrone is a pioneering surgeon whose work has fundamentally shaped the landscape of robotic and minimally invasive pancreatic surgery. His research focuses on the feasibility, safety, and technical refinement of complex robotic procedures, particularly pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy. Perrone’s landmark 2013 study on the feasibility of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (196 citations) and his subsequent systematic review of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (195 citations) provided the foundational evidence that these demanding operations could be performed safely with robotic assistance, challenging the traditional open approach. He has also critically examined the learning curve for robotic distal pancreatectomy (89 citations), offering essential guidance for surgeons adopting these techniques. Beyond technical feasibility, Perrone has explored the human factors influencing surgical performance, notably in his intriguing study on how videogames and musical instruments affect psychomotor skills on robotic simulators (32 citations). His collaborative work includes a joint consensus on abdominal robotic surgery and anesthesia, highlighting his role in establishing best practices. With over 700 total citations, Perrone’s contributions have been instrumental in advancing the adoption of robotic surgery for pancreatic and hepatobiliary diseases, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
