About

Henning Wieker is a pioneering surgeon at the forefront of robotic microsurgery, whose work is redefining the boundaries of precision in reconstructive and pediatric procedures. His research centers on the clinical adaptation and validation of next-generation robotic systems, particularly the Symani® and Senhance® platforms, for ultra-fine surgical tasks. Wieker’s major contributions include demonstrating the feasibility of robotic-assisted microanastomoses for coronary bypass and free flap reconstruction in the head and neck, as well as pioneering the use of 3 mm instruments for infant surgery in piglet models. His work on robot-assisted repair of perforated Schneiderian membranes in dental implantology and novel techniques for facial skeleton reconstruction using omental flaps further showcases his innovative breadth. With his most-cited paper garnering 17 citations and a 2025 consensus study summarizing over 900 clinical cases across 13 European centers, Wieker’s impact is both immediate and foundational. He is a key voice in establishing user consensus and training protocols, making him an essential figure for any student or researcher interested in the future of minimally invasive, robotically enhanced surgery.
