Dr. Pignata has more than 30 years of experience across all fields of general surgery and 15 years experience as the Head of Department . Hehas performed over 8,000 major surgeries with 4,000 of those being minimally invasive procedures. Dr. Pignata’s focus has always been on the development of new technologies, leading him to become a pioneer of laparoscopic surgery in Italy. One of Dr. Pignata’s areas of expertise is the reduction of surgical trauma to the abdominal wall through single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS).
He has vast experience in advanced mini-invasive surgery and can perform complicated procedures relating to the colon, rectum, stomach, kidney and urinary tract, adrenal gland, spleen, pancreas, biliary tract, liver, thyroid, abdominal wall (hernia/incisional hernias) and more. This has allowed him to provide exceptional treatment to all of his patients, leading to reduced hospitalisation, pain and bleeding and an earlier return to normal daily activities. Dr. Pignata has been invited to perform live operations in major Congresses and in Italian and European hospitals, leading him to become one of the leading surgeons that laparoscopists reference when it comes to training young surgeons. An opinion leader for new technology at several multinational companies, Professor Pignata is also one of the experts in the treatment of endometriosis and pelvic complex multi-organ procedures.
Dr. Pignata accepts all patients as candidates for minimally invasive surgery (also in the case of multiple previous surgeries) with the only limitations to laparoscopic surgery being represented by potential issues related to general anaesthesia. Dr. Pignata has no conversion to laparotomy minor surgery (appendectomy, cholecystectomy, wall defects, surgery of the joint gastro-oesophageal, gynaecological), while for major surgery the conversion rate is 2%, with complication rates at around 4%.Professor Pignata graduated in 1983 from the University of Padua, Italy and received his specialisation in urology from Padua University, and in general surgery from Verona University, Italy.
