About
Dr. Martine Goergen is a leading figure in the advancement of minimally invasive surgical oncology, with a primary focus on gastric cancer. Her work systematically compares robotic, laparoscopic, and open gastrectomy techniques, providing crucial evidence on their respective surgical, clinical, and oncological outcomes. Her landmark 2017 propensity score-matched study (100 citations) directly compared these three approaches, offering a rigorous evaluation of their safety and efficacy. Dr. Goergen is also the driving force behind the IMIGASTRIC study protocols, which established a multi-institutional, international framework for standardizing and comparing minimally invasive gastrectomy outcomes. Beyond gastric surgery, she has explored the natural evolution from laparoscopic to robotic pancreatoduodenectomy. Her pioneering efforts extend to technical innovation, as demonstrated by her work on "Real Robotic 3-Arm Sleeve Gastrectomy" and near-total (98%) gastrectomy. Through her leadership in the International study group on Minimally Invasive surgery for GASTRIc Cancer, Dr. Goergen is shaping the future of surgical practice, providing the high-quality evidence needed to guide surgeons in adopting and refining these complex, life-saving procedures.
