About
Christine Frayret is a pioneering breast surgeon whose work sits at the cutting edge of robotic-assisted oncoplastic surgery. Her primary research focus is the development and refinement of minimally invasive techniques for breast cancer treatment, particularly robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy (R-NSM) combined with immediate reconstruction. Her major contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility, safety, and reproducibility of a fully robotic approach—performing both the oncologic resection and the autologous reconstruction (using a robotic latissimus dorsi flap) in a single procedure. This work, detailed in her most cited paper (20 citations), represents a significant technical advance, aiming to reduce scarring and improve recovery while maintaining oncologic safety and aesthetic outcomes. Frayret’s research directly addresses the challenge of expanding robotic applications in breast surgery, moving beyond simple mastectomy to complex, combined reconstructive procedures. Her findings help establish standardized techniques and indications, paving the way for broader adoption of this innovative approach and offering patients a less invasive pathway through breast cancer treatment.
