About
Michele Marino is a surgical innovator and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of robotic surgery, minimally invasive techniques, and emerging digital technologies. Best known for his pioneering contributions to robot-assisted esophagectomy, Marino has helped establish the safety and feasibility of complex robotic procedures for esophageal cancer, including the technically demanding Ivor Lewis anastomosis. His 2015 paper on robot-sewn Ivor Lewis anastomosis, accumulating 28 citations, remains his most influential work, offering early technical guidance in a field hungry for reproducible data. Subsequent studies on totally robotic esophagectomy and systematic reviews of surgical and oncological outcomes have further cemented his reputation as a leading voice in this specialty, with his body of work collectively drawing over 75 citations. Beyond esophageal surgery, Marino has demonstrated a remarkably broad intellectual range. His early work on the Gryphon humanitarian demining robot reveals a deep engagement with applied robotics, while a 2022 paper exploring digital twin technology for endoscopic device testing signals his forward-looking interest in surgical simulation and innovation. His research on robotic intersphincteric resection and rare tumor excision further underscores a commitment to advancing minimally invasive surgery across multiple disciplines, making him a distinctive and versatile figure in surgical research.
