Giuseppe Panuccio

Giuseppe Panuccio is a Professor in the Department of Vascular Surgery at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE). His primary role involves advancing endovascular and surgical treatments for complex aortic pathologies. He specializes in the management of aortic aneurysms, dissections, and chronic total occlusions, with a focus on innovative techniques such as fenestrated and branched endovascular repair. Panuccio has contributed to international multicenter trials and pioneered methods like the electrified wire technique and Candy-Plug device for aortic interventions. His research integrates anatomical considerations, imaging strategies (CT/IVUS), and patient-specific outcomes, aiming to optimize surgical planning and reduce complications such as spinal cord ischemia. He has authored numerous high-impact publications on endovascular outcomes, device innovation, and anatomical approaches to vascular diseases. His work bridges clinical practice with translational research, addressing both urgent/emergent cases and long-term patient management.
