About
Dr. Kathryn Cataldo is a pioneering reconstructive surgeon whose work sits at the intersection of plastic surgery and gynecologic oncology, with a primary focus on advancing minimally invasive techniques for complex pelvic reconstruction. Her major contributions center on the development and refinement of the robotic rectus abdominis myoperitoneal flap, a novel approach for posterior vaginal wall reconstruction that leverages the precision of robotic-assisted surgery to reduce patient morbidity. This work, detailed in her most-cited paper from 2025, demonstrates her commitment to adapting reconstructive algorithms to harness the benefits of emerging surgical technologies. While her career is still in its early stages, with her top paper already garnering 2 citations, Dr. Cataldo’s research is positioned to have a significant impact on the field. By bridging the gap between gynecologic and plastic surgery, she is helping to define a new standard of care for patients undergoing complex pelvic procedures, ensuring that reconstructive options evolve in tandem with the rapid adoption of robotic surgery.
