About

Cornelia Betschart is a leading figure in urogynecology and pelvic floor reconstructive surgery, with a research focus on apical compartment prolapse, uterine and vault prolapse, and the advancement of robotic-assisted surgical techniques. Her landmark contribution, the FIGO Working Group report on the management of apical prolapse (56 citations), provides essential clinical guidance for a condition affecting 11-19% of women, addressing the growing need for effective surgical interventions. Dr. Betschart has also pioneered the field of robotic pelvic floor surgery, leading an international Delphi study (13 citations) to establish expert consensus on best practices, and developing the innovative robotic-assisted laparoscopic niche repair (RALNR) technique for cesarean scar defects. Her work on RALNR, which targets the critical residual myometrial thickness parameter, directly addresses the rising incidence of uterine scar defects and their life-threatening obstetric complications. Through these contributions, Dr. Betschart has significantly advanced surgical safety and outcomes for women with pelvic floor disorders, establishing herself as a key innovator in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.
