About
Ozgun Erten is a surgical researcher whose work sits at the cutting edge of minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgery, with particular expertise in adrenal surgery and coronary revascularization. Erten has made significant contributions to advancing robotic adrenalectomy techniques, investigating patient selection criteria, outcomes in challenging populations such as severely obese patients, and novel visualization methods including indocyanine green fluorescence imaging — work that has collectively garnered over 60 citations. His comparative studies between laparoscopic and robotic approaches, supported by rigorous intraoperative video analysis, have helped clarify the practical advantages of robotic platforms in complex abdominal procedures. Equally notable is Erten's pioneering research in robotic cardiac surgery, where he has examined long-term outcomes of robotic coronary artery bypass grafting, sex-specific outcomes in women undergoing robotic off-pump procedures, and high-risk or urgent scenarios including a landmark case of robotic revascularization in a pregnant patient. These contributions address critical gaps for patients who are poor candidates for conventional surgery. His body of work reflects a commitment to expanding the boundaries of minimally invasive surgery across specialties, offering evidence-based insights that are increasingly valuable to surgeons, trainees, and clinical researchers worldwide.
