About

Dr. Roman J. Skoracki is a pioneering reconstructive surgeon whose research lies at the intersection of microsurgery, oncology, and advanced robotics. His major contributions span three transformative areas: robotic-assisted breast reconstruction, pre-programmed osteotomies for mandible reconstruction, and the emerging field of physiologic lymphedema surgery. Notably, his preclinical investigation into pre-programmed robotic osteotomies for fibula free flap mandible reconstruction (33 citations) laid critical groundwork for reducing surgical inaccuracy in complex facial reconstruction. In breast surgery, Dr. Skoracki has been instrumental in advancing robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (RNSM), with key studies examining residual breast tissue as a surrogate for oncologic safety (20 citations) and establishing safety and feasibility protocols (13 citations). His recent work on robotic point-of-care manufacturing of personalized maxillofacial hardware (2023) and a forward-looking review of physiologic lymphedema treatments (2025) demonstrate his commitment to translating cutting-edge technology into patient-centered care. With a career defined by innovation at the nexus of robotics and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Skoracki continues to shape the future of surgical precision and minimally invasive techniques.
