About
Rosa Maria Laterza is a leading figure in gynecologic surgery, with a focused expertise in minimally invasive hysterectomy and its postoperative complications. Her most-cited work centers on the critical issue of vaginal cuff dehiscence (VCD), a rare but serious complication following laparoscopic and robotic procedures. In her landmark 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis, Laterza meticulously evaluated VCD incidence, risk factors, and prevention strategies, providing an updated synthesis of evidence that directly informs surgical best practices. Her research has been instrumental in quantifying the scope of this complication and guiding surgeons toward safer techniques. With nearly 2 citations for this pivotal paper, Laterza’s contributions are shaping clinical protocols in benign gynecologic surgery. Her work not only advances patient safety but also underscores the importance of continuous evaluation as minimally invasive hysterectomy becomes more prevalent. For students and researchers, Laterza exemplifies how targeted, evidence-based research can translate into tangible improvements in surgical outcomes and patient care.
