About

Carlo Alberto Manzo is a leading colorectal surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex pelvic procedures. His primary research focuses on robotic and laparoscopic approaches to proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA), the definitive treatment for ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis. Manzo’s major contribution lies in developing and refining hybrid robotic techniques that combine the precision of robotic systems with the efficiency of traditional laparoscopy, addressing the technical challenges of deep pelvic dissection. His most-cited paper, "Robotic proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis: a hybrid approach" (2025), has already garnered 4 citations, signaling growing recognition of his innovative methodology. By demonstrating improved outcomes in terms of reduced conversion rates and enhanced visualization, Manzo is helping to establish robotic surgery as a viable alternative to conventional laparoscopy. His work bridges the gap between emerging technology and clinical practice, offering patients safer, more effective surgical options. As a researcher at the forefront of surgical innovation, Manzo continues to shape the future of colorectal surgery, making him a key figure for students and clinicians interested in the evolution of robotic-assisted techniques.
