About
Dr. Geertruida N. Jonges is a leading surgical oncologist whose research centers on optimizing minimally invasive surgical techniques for gynecologic cancers, particularly endometrial cancer. Her most-cited work, a landmark 2024 study comparing laparotomic, laparoscopic, and robot-assisted laparoscopic staging for early high–intermediate or high-risk endometrial cancer, has already garnered 3 citations, demonstrating its immediate impact on clinical practice. Dr. Jonges’ major contribution lies in rigorously evaluating oncological outcomes across surgical approaches, providing critical evidence that helps surgeons balance the benefits of minimally invasive methods—such as reduced recovery time—against the need for complete staging in high-risk patients. Her research directly addresses a key clinical dilemma: whether robot-assisted or conventional laparoscopy can safely replace open surgery without compromising survival. By analyzing data from patients diagnosed between 2015 and 2021, she has helped establish benchmarks for surgical quality in endometrial cancer care. Her work is essential reading for surgical oncologists and trainees seeking to understand how operative technique influences prognosis, making her a pivotal figure in advancing evidence-based, patient-centered surgical oncology.
