About

Lorenzo Sabato is a pioneering surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive adrenal surgery through robotic innovation. His major contributions center on evaluating the safety and efficacy of the Da Vinci Single-Port (DV-SP) robotic system for adrenalectomy, a procedure that removes the adrenal gland. In his landmark 2025 systematic review and pooled analysis, Sabato synthesized limited evidence on DV-SP use, demonstrating that this single-port approach offers comparable perioperative outcomes to traditional multi-port robotic techniques, with potential benefits in reduced scarring and recovery time. This work, already cited 6 times, has become a foundational reference for surgeons adopting next-generation robotic platforms. Beyond this, Sabato’s broader research portfolio explores optimization of surgical workflows and patient selection criteria for robotic adrenal surgery. His meticulous methodology and focus on evidence-based practice have positioned him as a key voice in the transition toward single-port robotics, influencing both clinical guidelines and device development. For students and researchers, Sabato’s work exemplifies how rigorous systematic review can accelerate the adoption of emerging technologies, bridging the gap between innovation and clinical reality in endocrine surgery.
