About

Dr. Shefali Sharma is a leading researcher in gynecologic oncology and robotic surgery, with a focus on improving patient outcomes through minimally invasive techniques. Her work centers on the long-term effects of surgical interventions, particularly in endometrial and prostate cancers. A key contribution is her landmark 2019 study on urinary incontinence and quality of life in endometrial cancer patients after robotic-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy with lymph node dissection, which has garnered 13 citations and provides critical insights into post-surgical urinary function. Dr. Sharma also made significant strides in surgical education with her 2015 paper on establishing the learning curve for robotic sacral colpopexy in a start-up robotics program (12 citations), helping to standardize training protocols. Her 2010 review on the current state of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (5 citations) remains a foundational reference for understanding the evolution of robotic urologic surgery. Through these works, Dr. Sharma has demonstrated a commitment to bridging surgical innovation with patient-centered outcomes, making her a respected voice in the field of robotic gynecologic oncology.
