About
Dr. Stefan A.W. Bouwense is a leading figure in Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary (HPB) surgery, with a research focus on advancing minimally invasive techniques and integrating artificial intelligence into surgical practice. His most impactful work, published in 2024, investigates the use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging to assess resection margins during minimally invasive colorectal liver metastasis surgery—a critical innovation that addresses the persistent problem of unintended tumor-positive margins, which compromise oncologic outcomes. This study has already garnered 49 citations, underscoring its immediate relevance to improving surgical precision. Beyond this, Dr. Bouwense has spearheaded major international collaborations, including a propensity score-matched multicenter cohort study comparing robotic, laparoscopic, and open pancreatoduodenectomy for ampullary adenocarcinoma, and has contributed to landmark surveys from the European-African HPB Association (E-AHPBA) on the ethics and trustworthiness of AI in HPB surgery. His position paper on the future of HPB surgery and AI further demonstrates his leadership in shaping the field’s technological evolution. With a growing citation impact and a commitment to innovation, Dr. Bouwense is driving the next generation of safer, more effective surgical care.
