About

Ronnie Fine is a pediatric surgeon whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for children, particularly in the realm of robot-assisted laparoscopy. Her most-cited paper, "Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Urachal Excision in Children" (2017), with 14 citations, demonstrates her pioneering role in adapting robotic technology to treat congenital urachal anomalies—a niche but impactful area where precision and reduced trauma are critical. Fine’s contributions lie in refining surgical approaches that minimize recovery time and scarring for pediatric patients, often translating adult robotic procedures into safe, effective pediatric protocols. Beyond this work, she has published on topics like laparoscopic hernia repair and neonatal surgery, consistently emphasizing outcomes and safety. Her research, though modest in citation volume, has shaped clinical practice in pediatric robotic surgery, earning her recognition as a specialist in this evolving field. For students and researchers, Fine’s career exemplifies how focused, high-quality studies can drive innovation in surgical pediatrics, offering a model for integrating technology with compassionate care.
