Gaetano Riemma

About

Dr. Gaetano Riemma is a leading figure in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a research focus on enhancing surgical precision and patient safety through advanced technologies. His major contributions center on the systematic evaluation of novel techniques, including the use of near-infrared radiation imaging with indocyanine green (NIR-ICG) for sentinel lymph node detection in endometrial cancer and for treating benign gynecologic conditions. Dr. Riemma’s work has been instrumental in defining the safety and efficacy of these approaches, as evidenced by his highly cited 2021 metanalysis on surgical complications during sentinel lymph node detection (31 citations) and his 2022 systematic review on NIR-ICG use in benign surgery (20 citations). He has also advanced the field of robotic surgery, notably through a 2023 systematic review on robotic single-site hysterectomy for benign pathology (17 citations), which highlights the potential for reduced invasiveness and improved recovery. Dr. Riemma’s research consistently drives the evolution toward “minimalized surgery,” making him a key voice in the ongoing refinement of gynecologic surgical practices.
