About

Dr. Romina-Maria Sima is a leading voice in the intersecting fields of gynecologic oncology and perioperative medicine, with a research portfolio that bridges fertility preservation and surgical physiology. Her most cited work, "Fertility Preservation Strategies in Female Cancer Patients" (2025, 5 citations), critically evaluates the evolving landscape of fertility-sparing treatments (FSTs) for young women with early-stage cervical, ovarian, and endometrial cancers. While acknowledging the growing importance of these procedures, Dr. Sima’s review provides a balanced perspective, highlighting persistent concerns regarding long-term oncologic safety in more advanced cases—a contribution that has shaped current clinical guidelines. Complementing this, her 2022 study (4 citations) offers a rigorous, cross-sectional propensity-matched analysis of lung mechanics during video-assisted abdominal surgery in the Trendelenburg position. By comparing classic laparoscopy with robotic-assisted surgery, Dr. Sima has provided anesthesiologists and surgeons with critical data on respiratory and cardiovascular changes, directly impacting perioperative management. Her work is characterized by a unique dual focus: advancing both the quality of life for cancer survivors through fertility preservation and the safety of complex surgical procedures. With a growing citation record, Dr. Sima is establishing herself as a key researcher whose insights are essential for clinicians navigating the delicate balance between aggressive cancer treatment and patient-centered outcomes.
