Dr Ihsan Inan is a Swiss board-certified visceral surgeon specializing in advanced minimally invasive and robotic surgery, with a particular focus on abdominal wall reconstruction. A pioneer of total practice robotic surgery since 2015, he has been instrumental in developing and refining innovative techniques such as ventral TAPP, PeTEP, and robotic diastasis recti reconstruction, integrating them into comprehensive and reproducible clinical pathways.

With over three decades of experience in visceral, upper GI, colorectal, and complex hernia surgery, Dr Inan has practiced at Clinique Générale-Beaulieu since 2008, where he established ERAS and multimodal prehabilitation programs, and promotes opioid-free robotic surgery through the use of ultrasound-guided field blocks.

He is actively engaged in proctoring, training, and mentoring international teams in robotic hernia, abdominal wall reconstruction, colorectal, and gallbladder surgery techniques, and serves as faculty in multiple European and global robotic surgery congresses and training programs. Dr Inan’s academic work reflected in his Google Scholar profile (h-index 17) focuses on the evolution of robotic surgery as the natural continuum of minimally invasive surgery and the advancement of value-based, patient-centered surgical excellence.
