About
Dr. Ebram Salama is a surgical oncologist whose research focuses on optimizing outcomes for patients with colorectal cancer through rigorous analysis of large-scale national databases. His work centers on two critical themes: the influence of healthcare delivery systems on cancer surgery results, and the comparative effectiveness of minimally invasive versus open surgical techniques. In a landmark 2024 study analyzing the National Cancer Database, Dr. Salama demonstrated that the type of treatment facility significantly impacts surgical outcomes for colon cancer patients—a finding with direct implications for healthcare policy and patient referral patterns. He has also identified key predictors of treatment delays in rectal cancer, highlighting opportunities to improve timely access to definitive surgery. Most recently, his 2025 propensity-score matched analysis of pelvic exenteration for locally advanced rectal cancer provides crucial evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive approaches in this complex procedure. With over 17 citations across his most influential works, Dr. Salama’s research bridges the gap between surgical technique and health services research, offering actionable insights for clinicians and policymakers alike.
