About
Karime Kalil Machado is a leading gynecologic oncologist whose research has significantly advanced the surgical management of endometrial cancer. Her work focuses on the adoption and outcomes of minimally invasive hysterectomy, a critical area for improving patient recovery and reducing surgical morbidity. Her most-cited study, "Minimally invasive hysterectomy surgery rates for endometrial cancer performed at National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Centers" (2018), has garnered 87 citations, establishing a benchmark for evaluating surgical trends across top-tier cancer centers. This work highlighted disparities in the uptake of laparoscopic and robotic approaches, directly influencing clinical guidelines and quality improvement initiatives. Dr. Machado’s contributions are pivotal in bridging the gap between evidence-based practice and real-world implementation, ensuring that more patients benefit from less invasive procedures. Her research not only quantifies practice patterns but also advocates for equitable access to advanced surgical techniques. For students and researchers, her work exemplifies how clinical epidemiology can drive tangible changes in oncology care, making her a key voice in the ongoing evolution of gynecologic surgery.
