About
Marielle Nobbenhuis is a gynaecological oncologist whose research has significantly advanced the understanding and adoption of robotic-assisted surgery in the treatment of gynaecological cancers, particularly endometrial and cervical cancer. Her most influential work, a 2017 systematic review and meta-analysis comparing robotic with standard laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer (82 citations), provided rigorous evidence synthesis that has helped shape surgical decision-making internationally. Alongside this, her 2022 overview of robotic surgery in gynaecology (45 citations) has served as an accessible yet authoritative reference for clinicians navigating this rapidly evolving field. A distinctive thread running through Nobbenhuis's research is her commitment to real-world implementation, consistently evaluating both clinical and economic outcomes within NHS settings. Her prospective studies on introducing robotic platforms into publicly funded cancer services demonstrate that improved patient outcomes need not come at prohibitive cost — a vital contribution for health systems operating under financial constraints. She has also explored the specific challenges posed by obesity in surgical oncology and pioneered proficiency-based training frameworks for robotic laparoscopy. Collectively, her body of work positions her as a leading voice in evidence-based gynaecological oncology surgery, bridging technical innovation with patient-centred and health-economic considerations.
