About
Dr. Caroline Harte is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work has fundamentally advanced the application of robotic-assisted laparoscopy in children, particularly for complex oncologic and urologic conditions. Her research focuses on demonstrating the safety, feasibility, and benefits of minimally invasive robotic techniques in a population traditionally managed with open surgery. Dr. Harte’s landmark study, “Robotic Surgery in Pediatric Oncology: Lessons Learned from the First 100 Tumors—A Nationwide Experience” (52 citations), provides critical, large-scale evidence on the efficacy of robotic resection for pediatric malignancies, including Wilms tumors. Her earlier work on robotic-assisted management of renal tumors (57 citations) established foundational protocols, while her investigation into the retroperitoneal approach for ureteropelvic junction obstruction (23 citations) expanded surgical options for urologic reconstruction. By meticulously documenting outcomes and sharing lessons from a multidisciplinary pediatric robotic program, Dr. Harte has helped shape national guidelines and inspired broader adoption of these techniques. Her contributions not only improve surgical precision and recovery for young patients but also pave the way for future innovations in pediatric robotic surgery.
