About

Dr. Geert Roeyen is a pioneering figure in the field of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic and laparoscopic techniques. His major contributions center on advancing the safety, feasibility, and outcomes of complex pancreatic procedures, particularly distal pancreatectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy. Dr. Roeyen’s work on the European E-MIPS registry, which has garnered 21 citations, provides critical insights into the real-world use and outcomes of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery across Europe, establishing benchmarks for quality and safety. He also demonstrated the feasibility of robot-assisted choledochotomy in a highly cited 2004 study, laying groundwork for robotic applications in hepatobiliary surgery. More recently, his 2024 retrospective cohort study on robot-assisted and laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy, with 13 citations, underscores his leadership in pan-European data collection and analysis. Dr. Roeyen’s research directly informs international guidelines and clinical practice, highlighting his impact on surgical standards. His ongoing work, including a single-centre analysis of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy, continues to shape the future of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery, making him a key reference for students and researchers in surgical oncology and robotics.
