About

Manya Prasad is a rising researcher in the field of minimally invasive surgery, with a focus on comparative effectiveness between laparoscopic and robotic approaches. Her work systematically evaluates surgical outcomes across multiple specialties, particularly in hernia repair and pancreatic surgery. Her most cited paper, a 2023 systematic review and meta-analysis on patient-reported outcomes in laparoscopic versus robotic ventral and incisional hernia repair, has garnered 22 citations, establishing a foundation for understanding quality-of-life metrics in surgical decision-making. In her 2025 study on pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), she addresses a critical gap in the literature—the lack of robust data comparing these two minimally invasive techniques for these rare neoplasms. By synthesizing available evidence, her research provides clarity on outcomes such as operative time, complications, and recovery, helping to guide surgical practice where consensus has been lacking. Prasad’s work is notable for its rigorous methodology and focus on patient-centered outcomes, making her a valuable voice in evidence-based surgery. Her contributions are particularly relevant for clinicians and researchers seeking to optimize surgical approaches for complex abdominal conditions.
