About
Caroline Gronnier is a leading figure in minimally invasive and robotic digestive surgery, with a research focus on optimizing surgical techniques for hernia repair, colorectal cancer, and emergency procedures. Her major contributions include a landmark 2023 systematic review and meta-analysis on robotic surgery for inguinal and ventral hernia repair (cited 54 times), which provided critical evidence on outcomes compared to traditional approaches. She also co-authored the 2022 WSES position paper on training curricula for minimally invasive emergency digestive surgery, establishing guidelines to address the learning curve in high-stakes settings. In 2024, Gronnier advanced the field with a Bayesian network meta-analysis comparing histopathological outcomes of transanal, robotic, open, and laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer resection, offering nuanced insights into oncological adequacy. Additionally, she contributed to official expert recommendations for robotic-assisted right colectomy under the French Association of Surgery. Her work, totaling over 90 citations, has shaped surgical standards and training protocols, making her a pivotal voice in the integration of robotics into both elective and emergency digestive surgery.
