About

Cesare Stabilini is a leading figure in abdominal wall surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic and open approaches to complex ventral hernia repair. His major contributions center on the comparative effectiveness of the transversus abdominis release (TAR) technique, a critical procedure for large or recurrent hernias. Through rigorous systematic reviews and meta-analyses, including his highly cited 2021 paper (74 citations), Stabilini has provided essential evidence on short-term outcomes, directly comparing open versus robotic TAR to guide surgical decision-making. He has also advanced the field by authoring the European Hernia Society’s current training pathway for robotic abdominal wall surgery (33 citations), helping to standardize safe adoption of the Da Vinci platform. His work extends to intestinal endometriosis, where he has explored bowel resection outcomes (36 citations). With a career dedicated to evidence-based surgical innovation, Stabilini’s research—culminating in the comprehensive ROVER review—has shaped modern hernia repair protocols, making him a key resource for surgeons and trainees navigating the transition to minimally invasive techniques.
