About

Mikhail Y. Sinelnikov is a pioneering surgeon advancing the frontier of robotic breast surgery. His research focuses on the clinical application of robot-assisted minimally invasive techniques to reduce trauma and improve outcomes for breast cancer patients. Dr. Sinelnikov’s major contributions include demonstrating the efficacy of the da Vinci robot for axillary lymph node dissection, showing it can significantly lower postoperative complications compared to conventional surgery. He has also reported initial success with robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction using a gel implant and latissimus dorsi muscle flap, a complex procedure that preserves natural appearance while minimizing scarring. His most cited work, a 2022 review on robot-assisted breast surgery, has garnered 52 citations, reflecting growing interest in this field. With additional papers cited 34 and 8 times, his cumulative impact is establishing robotic approaches as a viable, patient-friendly alternative in oncologic breast care. Dr. Sinelnikov’s work is not only technically innovative but also clinically practical, offering hope for less invasive, more cosmetically satisfying surgical options.
