    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    Dr. Mark V. Mazziotti has a special interest and training in laparoscopy, thorascoscopy, and minimal invasive pectus excavatum repair. He has expertise in the full range of pediatric surgery.

    Dr. Mazziotti’s current focus is on the clinical practice of pediatric surgery in an educational setting. He has special interest and training in minimally invasive surgery, including thoracoscopic pectus excavatum repair. He has devised a novel technique for the minimally-invasive repair of pectus carinatum using conventional Nuss equipment with modifications. He has studied how various stabilization techniques have improved outcomes in pectus excavatum patients.

    Dr. Mazziotti’s research interests are in clinical outcomes. He has interest in clinical outcomes for patients with biliary dyskinesia treated with laparoscopic cholecystectomy compared to patients with gallstones treated in the same fashion. He also has ongoing projects evaluating clinical outcomes in patients with perforated appendicitis, spontaneous pneumothorax, and in patients with ITP undergoing laparoscopic splenectomy.

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
