About

Dr. Giuseppe Sorrentino is a leading figure in the advancement of minimally invasive esophageal surgery, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted techniques for achalasia. His work centers on refining surgical approaches to improve patient safety and outcomes, most notably through the use of robotic Heller myotomy (RHM) with partial fundoplication. In his highly cited 2023 review, "Robotic Surgery in Achalasia: State of the Art," Dr. Sorrentino demonstrates that this robotic approach is not only safe and efficient but also offers superior ergonomic comfort for the surgeon while significantly reducing the risk of intraoperative esophageal perforation. By synthesizing current literature with his own extensive clinical experience, he positions RHM as a potential new standard of care. With over 5 citations on this pivotal work alone, Dr. Sorrentino’s contributions are shaping the future of surgical treatment for achalasia, offering a compelling blend of technical innovation and tangible clinical benefit that directly impacts both surgeons and their patients.
