About

Katherine Corbyons is a pediatric urologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques and optimizing postoperative care for children. Her most cited work, "A Non-Narcotic Pathway for the Management of Postoperative Pain Following Pediatric Robotic Pyeloplasty" (2017, 11 citations), introduces a novel non-narcotic pain management protocol that reduces opioid exposure in children undergoing robotic pyeloplasty. This contribution directly addresses the critical need for safer, evidence-based pain control strategies in pediatric surgery, demonstrating her commitment to improving patient outcomes while combating the opioid crisis. Corbyons also contributed to the field of robotic reconstructive surgery with her 2014 video article detailing a combined anterior and posterior approach with omental flap interposition for repairing rectovesical fistulas. Her work showcases technical innovation in complex pediatric urologic procedures, emphasizing precision and reduced morbidity. Through these contributions, Corbyons has established herself as a leader in pediatric robotic surgery and non-narcotic pain management, impacting clinical practice by offering safer, more effective alternatives for young patients.
