About
Marcantonio V. Pinci is a rising orthopaedic researcher whose work centers on health equity and patient perceptions in robotic-assisted total joint arthroplasty. His research critically examines how minority populations, particularly Hispanic communities, experience and access advanced surgical technologies. In his most-cited paper, "Patient Perception of Robotic-Assisted Total Joint Arthroplasty in a Hispanic Population" (2024, 6 citations), Pinci addresses a persistent gap in the literature by exploring barriers to robotic surgery utilization among underrepresented groups, highlighting disparities in access and patient education. His subsequent study, "Patient perception of computed tomography scans in robotic-assisted elective total knee and hip arthroplasty" (2025), further investigates patient attitudes toward preoperative imaging, contributing to a nuanced understanding of shared decision-making in orthopaedics. Though early in his career, Pinci’s work is notable for its patient-centered focus and its potential to inform more equitable surgical practices. By centering the voices of marginalized patients, he is helping to shape a future where technological advancements in joint replacement benefit all populations equally. His growing citation record reflects the timely importance of his contributions to orthopaedic health services research.
