About
Georgios E. Hilaris is a leading researcher in gynecologic oncology, with a focused expertise in minimally invasive surgical approaches—specifically laparoscopic and robotic surgery—for the treatment of endometrial cancer in elderly patients. His work has been pivotal in demonstrating that advanced surgical techniques can be safely and effectively applied to older, more vulnerable populations, a group often underrepresented in clinical trials. In his highly cited 2021 retrospective multicentric study, Hilaris provided critical comparative data showing that robotic surgery offers distinct advantages over traditional laparoscopy for elderly endometrial cancer patients, influencing surgical decision-making worldwide. Building on this, his 2023 multicenter observational study introduced the Modified Frailty Index (mFI) as a powerful preoperative tool to predict intraoperative and postoperative complications in this demographic. By validating the mFI’s utility, Hilaris has equipped surgeons with a practical method to better assess surgical risk and tailor treatment plans. With over 26 citations across these landmark papers, his research is shaping a new standard of care, emphasizing that age alone should not preclude patients from benefiting from the reduced morbidity of minimally invasive surgery.
