Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Abdominal surgery represents a continuously evolving field where precision, customization, and multidisciplinary approaches have become central to optimizing patient outcomes. Over the last decades, advances in imaging, molecular profiling, minimally invasive techniques, and artificial intelligence have deeply transformed both oncologic and benign surgical indications. Historically, surgical decision making was often based on generalized protocols; however, the emergence of personalized surgery allows for a patient-specific tailoring of operative strategies, perioperative care, and adjunctive therapies.
The aim of this Special Issue is to present high-quality contributions addressing innovative approaches, individualized surgical techniques, novel perioperative management strategies, and the integration of molecular and technological advances into abdominal surgery. We strongly encourage submissions reporting original research, clinical trials, technical notes, systematic reviews, and cutting-edge translational studies that may contribute to defining new standards for personalized surgical care.
