About
Muhammad Shafique Sajid is a leading surgical researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques in colorectal and upper gastrointestinal oncology. His primary research areas include robotic and laparoscopic surgery for rectal and gastric cancers, with a particular emphasis on evidence-based evaluation of surgical outcomes. Dr. Sajid made a significant contribution to the field with his 2018 systematic review on robotic total meso-rectal excision (TME) for rectal cancer, published in the wake of the landmark ROLARR trial. This meta-analysis, which has garnered 35 citations, critically evaluated operative, post-operative, and oncological outcomes of robotic versus laparoscopic TME, providing surgeons with essential data to guide clinical decision-making. Additionally, his 2017 review on minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer examined the current status and future directions of these techniques within the UK, comparing national practices to global standards. Through these works, Dr. Sajid has helped clarify the effectiveness of advanced surgical approaches, offering valuable insights that support the ongoing evolution of cancer surgery toward less invasive, patient-centered care.
