About
Dr. Priya Prakash is a pioneering colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly through natural orifice and robotic-assisted approaches. Her major contributions center on the development and evaluation of the NICE (Natural orifice Intracorporeal anastomosis with transrectal Extraction) procedure, a novel technique that reduces surgical trauma by avoiding abdominal incisions. In her landmark 2025 study, she meticulously mapped the learning curve for this complex procedure, demonstrating that mastery is achievable within a structured training framework. Her subsequent cost analysis revealed that the NICE procedure offers significant economic benefits over traditional open, laparoscopic, and robotic surgeries, challenging assumptions about the expense of advanced minimally invasive methods. Though early in her career, with her most-cited works accumulating 2 and 1 citations respectively, Dr. Prakash’s research has already attracted attention for its potential to transform colorectal surgery standards. Her work not only addresses clinical outcomes but also tackles the critical issue of healthcare economics, positioning her as an emerging leader in surgical innovation.
