About
Dr. Priyanka Makkar is a distinguished gynecologic oncologist whose research focuses on advancing surgical techniques for cervical cancer treatment, particularly in resource-limited settings. Her most-cited work, a 2021 single-centre study from India, provides critical comparative data on robotic radical hysterectomy versus open radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. This study, with 5 citations, addresses a vital gap in evidence from low- and middle-income countries, where access to minimally invasive surgery is often limited. Dr. Makkar’s contributions highlight the feasibility and outcomes of robotic surgery in Indian healthcare contexts, offering insights that can guide surgical decision-making and improve patient recovery. Her work underscores the importance of tailoring advanced oncologic interventions to local infrastructure and patient populations. By documenting real-world outcomes from a high-volume Indian centre, she has helped bridge the knowledge divide between high-income and developing nations. Dr. Makkar’s research is particularly impactful for trainees and practitioners in gynecologic oncology, demonstrating how rigorous comparative studies can inform practice even with modest sample sizes. Her dedication to evidence-based surgery in cervical cancer care continues to shape treatment paradigms in India and beyond.
