About
Dharani K. Hapangama is a leading researcher in gynaecological oncology, with a primary focus on endometrial cancer and minimally invasive surgical approaches. Her major contribution lies in advancing evidence-based surgical treatment for endometrial cancer, particularly through her landmark systematic review and network meta-analysis comparing minimally invasive hysterectomy routes with open surgery. This work, published in 2024, synthesizes data from multiple studies to demonstrate that total hysterectomy via minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is the standard of care for early-stage endometrial cancer, providing critical guidance for clinical practice. With 14 citations to this key paper, her research has already begun shaping surgical protocols and patient outcomes. Beyond this, Hapangama’s work addresses the broader challenges of optimizing surgical techniques to reduce morbidity and improve recovery. Her achievements include integrating rigorous meta-analytical methods to resolve long-standing debates in the field, making her a trusted voice in gynaecological oncology. For students and researchers, her contributions highlight the power of evidence synthesis in transforming clinical standards, offering a model for impactful translational research.
