About
Mohd Raashid Sheikh is a leading surgical researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery. His major contributions center on evaluating the safety, cost, and outcomes of robotic versus laparoscopic and open approaches for complex procedures. Sheikh’s landmark study, “A Potential Role for Robotic Cholecystectomy in Patients with Advanced Liver Disease” (40 citations), demonstrated that robotic surgery may offer unique benefits for high-risk patients despite longer operative times and higher costs. His comprehensive analyses using national databases, including the NSQIP and Nationwide Readmissions Database, have provided critical insights into hospitalization costs and perioperative outcomes for robotic liver resections (25 citations) and pancreaticoduodenectomies (12 citations). Sheikh also contributed a novel knot-tying technique for robot-assisted surgery (8 citations), showcasing his innovative approach to overcoming technical challenges. With over 100 total citations, his work is shaping the evidence base for adopting robotic surgery in hepatobiliary practice, helping surgeons and policymakers weigh the trade-offs between cost, operative time, and patient outcomes.
