About

Rebecca Flyckt is a reproductive surgeon and gynecologist whose career has centered on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for uterine conditions and expanding options for women facing infertility. Her most influential work focuses on myomectomy — the surgical removal of uterine fibroids — with her landmark 2016 comparative study (82 citations) demonstrating long-term fertility and bleeding outcomes across robotic-assisted, laparoscopic, and abdominal approaches, helping establish evidence-based guidance for surgeons and patients alike. Her 2017 review of minimally invasive myomectomy (31 citations) further synthesized the clinical benefits of these approaches for women with fibroids impacting fertility and quality of life. Beyond fibroid surgery, Flyckt has emerged as a prominent voice in the nascent field of uterine transplantation, contributing to international discourse on its feasibility, ethics, and surgical execution. She co-authored key meeting reports from the International Society of Uterus Transplantation and explored whether minimally invasive harvesting techniques could make transplantation more accessible. Her 2023 paper examining uterine transplantation versus surrogacy reflects her engagement with the profound ethical dimensions of reproductive medicine. Across her body of work, Flyckt has consistently pushed the boundaries of what is surgically and ethically possible for women with uterine factor infertility.
