About

Dr. Roxanne Eurlings is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for children, with a particular emphasis on robotic-assisted surgery and inguinal hernia repair. Her most significant contributions include the world’s first report on pediatric robotic inguinal hernia repair using the Senhance® Surgical System, a landmark study that demonstrated the safety and feasibility of this approach in children—a population where robotic applications have historically been limited. Her work has garnered early but meaningful recognition, with her foundational papers accumulating over a dozen citations since 2024, signaling growing interest in her findings. Dr. Eurlings has also provided critical insights into the economic dimensions of pediatric surgery, conducting a cost analysis of four surgical techniques for inguinal hernia repair that revealed robot-assisted procedures incur the highest operating room costs due to prolonged anesthesia and docking time. This work offers valuable guidance for hospital resource allocation. Through her observational studies and comparative analyses, Dr. Eurlings is shaping the future of pediatric surgical care, balancing technological innovation with practical, patient-centered outcomes.
