About

Andrea Luigi Camillo Carobbio is a pioneering figure in the emerging field of robotic telesurgery, with a particular focus on otolaryngology and head and neck procedures. His key research areas include the development and validation of remote surgical systems, specifically for transoral laser microsurgeries and transnasal endoscopic skull base surgery. Carobbio’s major contributions are most notably demonstrated in his groundbreaking work on 5G robotic telesurgery, where he and his team successfully performed complex vocal cord laser microsurgeries on cadavers from a distance. This work, published in 2020, has garnered 49 citations, highlighting its significance in proving the practical viability of high-bandwidth, low-latency remote surgery. A related letter, also from 2020, further details these achievements with 45 citations. Additionally, Carobbio contributed to the systematic review of robotic transnasal skull base surgery and the development of a novel hybrid system, the Brescia Endoscope Assistant Robotic Holder, which has received 44 citations. Through these efforts, Carobbio has not only advanced the technical frontiers of telesurgery but also laid crucial groundwork for its future clinical application, making him a key innovator in the drive to expand surgical access across distances.
