Arnulf Bhatt

Arnulf Bhatt is a leading esophageal surgeon whose research has advanced minimally invasive esophagectomy techniques and perioperative management. His outcomes research demonstrated the safety and oncological equivalence of laparoscopic and robotic esophagectomy compared to open approaches, with superior short-term morbidity profiles. He has examined anastomotic technique, pulmonary complications, and nutritional support strategies to reduce major esophagectomy complications. His work has contributed to standardizing minimally invasive esophagectomy in high-volume centers and improving outcomes through enhanced recovery protocols.
