About
Dr. Maude Carmel is a pioneering urogynecologist and pelvic reconstructive surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for pelvic organ prolapse and complex female urological conditions. Her most impactful work centers on the development and refinement of single-port robotic-assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy, where she introduced the innovative use of magnetic retraction with the SP da Vinci platform—a technique that reduces incision size and improves surgical precision. Her seminal paper on this approach has garnered 24 citations, establishing her as a leader in next-generation robotic pelvic surgery. Dr. Carmel has also contributed critical insights into the long-term management of trans-vaginal mesh complications, with a 14-year outcomes study that informs clinical decision-making for mesh removal. Additionally, her research on robotic simple cystectomy as a last-resort treatment for antibiotic-recalcitrant recurrent urinary tract infections in women addresses a challenging clinical problem with limited therapeutic options. Through her video demonstrations and presentations at major urology meetings, including the Journal of Urology, Dr. Carmel has shaped surgical education and practice. Her work bridges technological innovation with patient-centered outcomes, making her a key figure in the evolution of female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery.
