About

Dr. Zuzanna Pelc is a rising authority in the field of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS), with a focused expertise in surgical innovation and healthcare system implementation. Her seminal work, "Quality over quantity—current challenges of robotic surgery in Poland" (2025), has already garnered 6 citations, establishing her as a key voice in the discourse on RAS adoption. Dr. Pelc’s major contribution lies in critically analyzing the rapid expansion of robotic surgery in Poland—where the number of surgical robots has tripled in just 36 months to 80 units—while emphasizing that procedural volume must not outpace quality assurance. She highlights the dominance of urological procedures in RAS and identifies systemic barriers to equitable access, offering a roadmap for sustainable integration. Her research is particularly impactful for policymakers and surgeons navigating the balance between technological proliferation and patient safety. Dr. Pelc’s work not only documents a national trend but also provides a replicable framework for other countries experiencing similar growth. As a forward-thinking researcher, she is shaping the future of minimally invasive surgery by championing evidence-based adoption over mere technological enthusiasm.
