About
R. Landmann is a leading colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on optimizing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly robotic-assisted and laparoscopic approaches for colorectal cancer and diverticular disease. Landmann’s major contributions center on comparing surgical outcomes to refine best practices. In a landmark multi-center prospective trial (2021, 57 citations), Landmann demonstrated that intracorporeal and extracorporeal anastomosis for robotic-assisted and laparoscopic right colectomy yield comparable short-term outcomes, providing crucial evidence for surgical decision-making. Further work has systematically identified risk factors for conversion to laparotomy in sigmoidectomy for diverticular disease (2019, 35 citations) and examined the impact of obesity (2018, 21 citations) and prolonged operative time (2018, 20 citations) on postoperative morbidity in robotic rectal cancer surgery. Landmann has also advanced surgical education, showing that fellow participation in robotic rectal cancer surgery does not compromise patient outcomes (2017, 16 citations). Notably, Landmann’s investigation into robotic distal dissection for ileal pouch anal anastomosis (2019) highlights a commitment to achieving superior technical precision. With over 155 citations across key studies, Landmann’s work directly informs safer, more effective colorectal surgery protocols and training models.
