About
Malene Korsholm is a prominent clinical researcher whose work sits at the intersection of gynecologic oncology, minimally invasive surgery, and health economics. She has made significant contributions to understanding the real-world impact of robotic surgery for early-stage endometrial cancer, particularly through large-scale population-based studies examining outcomes following Denmark's nationwide adoption of robotic-assisted minimally invasive techniques. Her most influential work, cited 69 times, demonstrated the association between Denmark's national rollout of robotic surgery and reductions in severe surgical complications for endometrial cancer patients — a finding with direct implications for clinical practice and healthcare policy. A closely related study, garnering 62 citations, further established that survival outcomes were not compromised by this technological transition, lending critical credibility to the shift away from traditional abdominal hysterectomy. Korsholm has also made important methodological contributions, authoring a systematic review of costing studies in robotic surgery that exposed widespread weaknesses in economic reporting standards — essential reading for health economists and surgical researchers alike. Her sustained focus on both clinical efficacy and resource consequences positions Korsholm as a uniquely rigorous voice in surgical innovation research, bridging patient outcomes with the economic realities facing modern healthcare systems.
