About
Dr. Catherine Uzan is a leading gynecologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly robotic-assisted procedures, for benign and oncologic indications. Her major contributions lie in systematically evaluating the comparative effectiveness, safety, and cost-efficiency of robotic surgery against traditional laparoscopic, vaginal, and open approaches. Her landmark 2023 systematic review and meta-analysis (61 citations) critically assessed robotic-assisted benign hysterectomy, providing essential evidence for surgical decision-making. Dr. Uzan has also pioneered cost-effectiveness analyses in gynecologic oncology (50 citations) and benign pathologies, demonstrating that robotic approaches can be economically viable when patient selection is optimized. Notably, she has explored the rediscovery of the Schautheim robot-assisted procedure for early-stage cervical cancer, offering a nuanced response to the LACC trial’s findings. Her work on robot-assisted sacrocolpopexy for recurrent pelvic organ prolapse and myomectomy further showcases her expertise in complex reconstructive and fertility-preserving surgery. Through rigorous comparative research and a focus on real-world outcomes, Dr. Uzan continues to shape the evidence base for robotic gynecology, helping surgeons and patients navigate the evolving landscape of minimally invasive care.
