About
Alberto Patriti is a pioneering Italian surgeon whose research has profoundly shaped the field of minimally invasive oncological surgery, with particular expertise in robotic and laparoscopic approaches to colorectal, hepatic, and gastric cancers. Over the course of his career, Patriti has been at the forefront of evaluating and validating robotic-assisted surgery as a safe and effective alternative to conventional laparoscopic techniques, generating a body of work that has accumulated well over 1,700 citations across his most influential studies alone. His landmark 2017 comparative study on robotic versus laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery (345 citations) and his 2010 multicentric investigation of robotic tumor-specific mesorectal excision (256 citations) established critical evidence for the clinical adoption of robotic platforms in rectal cancer management. Equally significant are his contributions to minimally invasive liver surgery, where his comparative analyses of robotic and laparoscopic resections — including technically challenging posterosuperior segment lesions — have guided surgical decision-making internationally. His early work on robot-assisted gastric resection with D2 lymph node dissection further demonstrates his commitment to expanding minimally invasive oncology. Through rigorous multicenter and matched-pair studies, Patriti has consistently bridged surgical innovation with patient-centered outcomes.
