About
Kristi L. Maimone is a surgical researcher whose work centers on the diagnosis, management, and outcomes of rare colorectal and presacral pathologies. Her major contributions lie in clarifying the natural history and surgical risks of uncommon conditions, particularly through large-scale institutional reviews. Her most cited work, a comprehensive review of the Mayo Clinic experience with presacral tailgut cysts, analyzed cases across three major sites over twelve years. This study provided critical data on the risk of malignancy in these rare lesions and detailed the surgical outcomes following resection, offering evidence-based guidance for a condition where management is often debated. With 24 citations, this paper has become a key reference for colorectal surgeons and pathologists. Dr. Maimone’s research is distinguished by its meticulous retrospective methodology and its focus on translating complex clinical data into actionable insights for surgical decision-making. Her work exemplifies how rigorous institutional case series can illuminate best practices for rare diseases, directly impacting patient counseling and operative planning.
