About
Dr. Erica Terreno is a pioneering gynecologic oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for the treatment of endometrial cancer. Her work centers on the integration of robotic laparoendoscopic single-site surgery with sentinel lymph node mapping, aiming to reduce surgical morbidity while maintaining oncologic precision. In her landmark 2018 prospective case series, Dr. Terreno demonstrated the feasibility of using fluorescence detection to identify sentinel lymph nodes during robotic single-site procedures in early-stage endometrial cancer patients. This study, which has garnered 4 citations, provided critical proof-of-concept for combining two emerging technologies—indocyanine green fluorescence imaging and single-port robotics—to streamline staging and recovery. Her contributions have helped pave the way for more personalized, less invasive surgical approaches in gynecologic oncology, directly impacting clinical protocols and patient quality of life. Dr. Terreno’s work is particularly notable for its practical focus on translating complex technological innovations into reproducible surgical workflows, making her a key voice in the evolution of robotic gynecologic surgery.
