About

Edoardo Agosti is a neurosurgeon and researcher whose work focuses on the frontier of minimally invasive skull base surgery, particularly through the integration of hybrid robotic systems. His most cited study, "Hybrid Robotics for Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery: Preclinical Evaluation and Surgeon First Impression" (2019, 18 citations), represents a pivotal contribution to the field. In this work, Agosti and his team rigorously assessed the feasibility and ergonomic advantages of a novel robotic platform for endoscopic endonasal approaches, providing the first surgeon-reported impressions of its clinical potential. This research directly addresses the critical challenge of precision and dexterity in confined surgical corridors, offering a pathway toward safer, more reproducible outcomes in complex cranial base procedures. Beyond this landmark paper, Agosti’s broader portfolio explores the intersection of surgical innovation, neuroanatomy, and translational technology. With a growing citation impact, his work is shaping how next-generation tools are evaluated before entering the operating room. Agosti’s contributions are especially valuable for trainees and engineers seeking to understand the practical hurdles and promise of robotic assistance in neurosurgery—a field where even incremental improvements can dramatically affect patient recovery and surgical safety.
