About
Simone Castiglioni is a leading researcher in minimally invasive abdominal wall and colorectal surgery, with a focus on optimizing outcomes through advanced technologies. His work centers on two key areas: robotic versus laparoscopic approaches for hernia repair and the intraoperative use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging. Castiglioni’s most cited paper (74 citations) provides a pivotal systematic review and meta-analysis comparing open and robotic transversus abdominis release (TAR) for ventral hernia repair, clarifying short-term outcomes and guiding surgical decision-making. He further advanced the field with a multicenter study (29 citations) using propensity score matching to compare robotic and laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repairs for bilateral hernias, offering robust evidence for robotic superiority. In colorectal surgery, his state-of-the-art review (52 citations) on ICG fluorescence imaging in rectal cancer surgery highlights how this technology enhances intraoperative visualization and perfusion assessment. Castiglioni’s work, characterized by rigorous methodology and clinical relevance, has earned over 150 citations, establishing him as a key voice in the evolution of robotic hernia surgery and fluorescence-guided techniques.
