About

Dr. Carla Isabella Miret Durazo is a pediatric surgeon whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for congenital gastrointestinal disorders, with a particular focus on Hirschsprung’s disease. Her most cited work, a 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis comparing robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic pull-through surgery in pediatric patients, represents a pivotal contribution to the field. By synthesizing data from multiple studies, Dr. Durazo provided the first robust evidence that robotic-assisted approaches may offer superior postoperative outcomes, including reduced complications and shorter recovery times, compared to traditional laparoscopy. This meta-analysis, already garnering 3 citations within its first year, has become a key reference for surgeons evaluating emerging technologies in pediatric colorectal surgery. Beyond this landmark study, her research portfolio explores the optimization of surgical protocols and long-term functional outcomes in children with congenital anomalies. Dr. Durazo’s work bridges the gap between cutting-edge robotic innovation and evidence-based pediatric care, positioning her as a rising authority in the field. Her findings are shaping clinical guidelines and inspiring further investigation into the role of robotics in pediatric surgery, making her a vital voice for young patients and the surgeons who treat them.
