About
Iwona Bednarz‐Misa is a leading researcher in surgical oncology and perioperative immunology, with a focus on colorectal cancer. Her work centers on understanding how different surgical approaches—particularly robot-assisted versus open surgery—affect the body's stress response, immune function, and cancer-related pathways. She has made major contributions by elucidating the dynamics of chemokines, cytokines, and the L-Arginine/NO pathway in colorectal cancer patients, demonstrating their potential as disease biomarkers and predictors of adverse clinical outcomes. Her most cited study (25 citations) revealed distinct chemokine dynamics in the early postoperative period after robotic versus open colorectal surgery, while another highly cited paper (23 citations) established the relevance of L-Arginine/NO metabolites in colorectal cancer diagnostics and prognosis. Bednarz‐Misa has also shown that robot-assisted surgery mitigates early postoperative immunosuppression and angiogenesis, a finding with significant implications for patient recovery and cancer recurrence. Her work, spanning from 2018 to 2025, consistently highlights the molecular advantages of minimally invasive techniques, earning her recognition as a key voice in advancing personalized surgical care for colorectal cancer patients.
