About
Dr. O. Yildiz is a pioneering gynecologic oncologist whose research focuses on minimally invasive surgical techniques for endometrial cancer, particularly scarless and pain-free approaches. Their major contributions center on advancing sentinel lymph node biopsy through vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES), a technique that eliminates abdominal incisions and reduces postoperative pain. In their landmark 2024 study, Dr. Yildiz demonstrated the feasibility and safety of vNOTES for endometrial cancer staging, achieving notable sentinel lymph node detection rates while offering patients a truly scarless recovery. This work has already garnered 8 citations, signaling its rapid impact on surgical practice. Dr. Yildiz further expanded this frontier in 2025 by directly comparing robotic-assisted and vNOTES techniques for sentinel lymph node biopsy, providing crucial evidence that vNOTES can match robotic precision while offering superior cosmetic and pain outcomes. Their research is reshaping the standard of care, moving endometrial cancer surgery toward less invasive, patient-centered approaches. With these innovative contributions, Dr. Yildiz is establishing themselves as a leader in the emerging field of natural orifice surgery in gynecologic oncology, inspiring a new generation of surgeons to prioritize both oncologic efficacy and quality of life.
