Dr. Dall’Oglio has extensive surgical experience with open and laparoscopic techniques for the most important pediatric indications. He was the first person to organize a pediatric digestive endoscopy procedure in Italy, in 1978, and he subsequently introduced important improvements, including the patented dynamic stent for the treatment of esophageal strictures.
