About

Drisana Henry is a surgical researcher whose work focuses on advancing the safety and precision of minimally invasive procedures, particularly in robotic and advanced laparoscopic surgery. Her most-cited study, "Surgical anatomy of supraumbilical port placement: implications for robotic and advanced laparoscopic surgery" (2015), has garnered 8 citations and provides critical insights into anatomical landmarks for port placement, directly informing surgical practice to reduce complications. This contribution underscores her expertise in surgical anatomy and her commitment to translating anatomical knowledge into practical, evidence-based guidelines for operating room teams. Henry’s research addresses a fundamental challenge in minimally invasive surgery—optimizing access points to enhance patient outcomes—and her work serves as a valuable reference for surgeons and trainees alike. By bridging the gap between cadaveric anatomy and clinical application, she has helped standardize techniques that improve procedural safety. Her findings are particularly relevant for the growing field of robotic surgery, where precise port placement is essential for instrument maneuverability and patient recovery. Henry’s dedication to surgical education and patient safety positions her as a thoughtful contributor to the evolution of modern surgical practice.
