About

Andrew Zakhari is a Canadian gynecologic surgeon and clinical researcher whose work centers on minimally invasive gynecological surgery, with a particular focus on hysterectomy techniques, uterine cancer management, and surgical innovation. His most influential contribution, a 2015 comparative study of laparoscopic and robot-assisted hysterectomy for uterine cancer, has garnered 53 citations and provided clinicians with critical insights into the cost-effectiveness and complication profiles of these competing approaches — evidence that directly informs surgical decision-making in oncological care. Building on this foundation, his 2017 study extended the comparison to benign uterine conditions, specifically leiomyomas, further establishing the nuanced trade-offs between laparoscopic and robotic platforms. His 2016 work examining hysterectomy outcomes in elderly patients with uterine cancer addresses an underserved and clinically complex population, contributing meaningfully to geriatric oncology discussions. More recently, Zakhari has positioned himself at the frontier of surgical innovation through his 2021 publication on vNOTES hysterectomy — among the first reported Canadian experiences with this emerging natural orifice technique — signaling his commitment to advancing patient-centered, minimally invasive care.
