About
Nathalie D. McKenzie is a gynecologic oncologist whose research focuses on refining surgical staging and treatment for endometrial and cervical cancers, particularly through minimally invasive and robotic approaches. Her work has significantly advanced the understanding of sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in endometrial cancer, demonstrating how primary tumor histology and SLN metastasis size predict non-sentinel node involvement—a finding critical for guiding adjuvant therapy. She has also investigated the implications of SLN mapping failure during robotic surgery, highlighting the importance of bilateral mapping symmetry to ensure accurate staging. In cervical cancer, Dr. McKenzie has examined recurrence patterns and survival following robotic radical hysterectomy, contributing to the ongoing debate sparked by the LACC Trial regarding the safety of minimally invasive surgery. Her studies on malignant peritoneal cytologic contamination during robotic hysterectomy further underscore her commitment to improving surgical outcomes. With over 60 citations across her most-cited works, Dr. McKenzie’s research provides essential data for surgeons navigating the complexities of modern gynecologic oncology, balancing technological innovation with patient safety.
