About
Michele Bollino is a gynecologic oncology researcher whose work has fundamentally advanced the surgical management of endometrial and cervical cancer, with a particular focus on sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping and minimally invasive robotic surgery. His research has helped drive a paradigm shift away from routine systematic lymphadenectomy toward targeted, anatomy-based SLN biopsy — a transition with significant implications for reducing surgical morbidity while maintaining diagnostic accuracy. Bollino's most influential contribution is the prospective SHREC trial (2019, 237 citations), which rigorously validated a pelvic SLN algorithm in high-risk endometrial cancer, a population where lymph node assessment is both critical and technically challenging. Complementing this, his 2017 studies on SLN feasibility and reproducible anatomical algorithms (168 and 69 citations respectively) established the procedural foundation widely adopted in clinical practice. His comparative work across endometrial and cervical cancers further demonstrated consistent lymphatic distribution patterns, strengthening the generalizability of SLN techniques. More recent investigations into metastasis prevalence, endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia, and hybrid mapping algorithms reflect his ongoing commitment to refining diagnostic sensitivity and individualizing patient care. Collectively, Bollino's contributions represent a substantial and clinically meaningful body of work in gynecologic surgical oncology.
