About
Sanjeev Shetty is a pioneering surgical oncologist whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for complex gastrointestinal and thoracic malignancies. His major contributions lie in the comparative evaluation of robotic and video-assisted approaches for esophageal and pancreatic cancers, where he has demonstrated that robotic surgery can achieve comparable or superior short-term and pathologic outcomes. In a landmark 2022 study, Shetty conducted a propensity score-matched analysis of robot-assisted versus video-assisted thoraco-laparoscopic McKeown’s esophagectomy for esophageal cancer, a work that has garnered 13 citations and is shaping clinical decision-making in high-volume centers. His earlier 2021 investigation into robotic versus open pancreatoduodenectomy for periampullary and pancreatic head malignancy, with 10 citations, provided early evidence that robotic techniques can reduce morbidity without compromising oncologic clearance. Shetty’s research is instrumental in defining the safety and efficacy of robotic platforms in cancer surgery, offering surgeons and patients a data-driven roadmap for adopting these advanced technologies. His work continues to influence practice patterns and inspire further trials in minimally invasive oncologic surgery.
