About
Nadia Haj Mohammad is a leading surgical oncologist whose research centers on advancing the treatment of esophageal cancer through robotic surgery. Her most significant contribution is the landmark randomized controlled trial comparing robot-assisted minimally invasive thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy (RAMIE) to open transthoracic esophagectomy (OTE), which has garnered over 640 citations. This pivotal work demonstrated that RAMIE reduces perioperative complications while maintaining oncologic efficacy, establishing a new standard for minimally invasive esophageal cancer surgery. She has also pioneered the application of robotic techniques for technically challenging cases, including upper third esophageal tumors and upper mediastinal lymph node metastases, as well as salvage RAMIE for T4b cancers after definitive chemoradiotherapy—expanding surgical options for patients previously deemed inoperable. With her research cited over 800 times, Haj Mohammad has reshaped the surgical landscape for esophageal cancer, offering patients safer, less invasive alternatives and pushing the boundaries of what is achievable with robotic technology. Her work continues to inspire surgeons and researchers to explore the full potential of robotics in complex oncologic resections.
