About

Dr. Marlene M. Corton is a leading figure in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery, with a specialized focus on the anatomical foundations of robotic pelvic procedures. Her work bridges the gap between surgical technique and detailed anatomical understanding, particularly in complex prolapse repairs. Dr. Corton’s most cited paper, "Robotic Burch colposuspension: anatomical and technical considerations" (2023, 8 citations), provides essential guidance on the precise surgical anatomy required for successful robotic incontinence surgery, helping to standardize and improve outcomes. She has also contributed critical insights into surgical safety, as demonstrated in her case report "Pneumomediastinum After Robotic Sacrocolpopexy" (2013, 3 citations), which highlights rare but serious complications from carbon dioxide insufflation during minimally invasive prolapse repair. This work underscores her commitment to advancing both the efficacy and safety of robotic approaches in urogynecology. Through her detailed anatomical studies and clinical reports, Dr. Corton has become a trusted resource for surgeons seeking to refine their technique and reduce operative risks, making her a key educator and innovator in the field.
