About
Anjelica Alfonso is a surgeon at the forefront of minimally invasive hepatobiliary surgery, specializing in the robotic management of complex biliary tract pathologies. Her work focuses on advancing surgical techniques for rare and technically demanding conditions, including cholecystoduodenal fistula (CDF) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the biliary tract (IPMN-B). In her 2024 case report on robotic CDF management, she demonstrated the feasibility of a minimally invasive approach for a condition traditionally treated via open surgery, contributing to the evolution of laparoscopic and robotic fistula closure. Her 2023 report on robotic hepatectomy and cholecystectomy for IPMN-B is particularly notable, as it documents a rare Western Hemisphere case of this lesion and highlights the utility of intraoperative adjuncts in achieving successful resection. While her citation counts are currently modest—2 and 1 citations respectively—her work represents early, foundational contributions to the robotic surgical literature for these uncommon diseases. Alfonso’s research is especially valuable for surgeons seeking to expand the boundaries of robotic hepatobiliary surgery, offering detailed technical insights that may guide future clinical practice and larger-scale studies.
