About

Aurore Moussion is a leading colorectal surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes for rectal cancer patients, particularly through the use of robotic and minimally invasive techniques. Her major contributions center on total mesorectal excision (TME) combined with low anterior resection, a technically demanding procedure in the narrow pelvic space. She has been instrumental in the Rectal Surgery Evaluation Trial (2019, 22 citations), which established protocols for comparing surgical techniques in high-risk patients. Moussion leads the EUREKA collaborative, a multicentre cohort study evaluating clinical, oncological, and functional outcomes after robotic rectal cancer surgery (2024, 5 citations). Her research has identified critical risk factors for complications such as pelvic sepsis and anastomotic leak following robotic TME (2025, 3 citations), and she has developed predictive models for positive circumferential resection margins—a key determinant of local recurrence and survival (2025, 2 citations). Notably, her work on laparoscopic and robotic TME in overweight and obese patients (2024, 2 citations) addresses a high-risk population. With over 30 citations across her most influential papers, Moussion’s research is shaping evidence-based guidelines for robotic rectal cancer surgery, improving both oncological safety and functional outcomes for patients worldwide.
