About
Dr. Ramey D. Littell is a leading gynecologic oncologist whose research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes for women with endometrial and cervical cancers, particularly through minimally invasive approaches. Her work has been instrumental in characterizing the safety and efficacy of robotic-assisted and laparoscopic hysterectomy, with landmark studies quantifying the risk of venous thromboembolism following these procedures—a critical contribution cited 49 times. Dr. Littell’s 2016 study comparing postoperative complications between robotic and laparoscopic techniques (34 citations) provided essential data for surgical decision-making. She has also advanced surgical education, demonstrating that resident participation in minimally invasive hysterectomies does not compromise patient outcomes, a finding with 8 citations that supports training in academic centers. Her most recent work examines long-term recurrence risks in early-stage cervical cancer based on surgical route and tumor size, reflecting her sustained commitment to evidence-based practice. Through these contributions, Dr. Littell has shaped modern gynecologic oncology by balancing innovation, safety, and education.
