About

Sandeep Kaul is a colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly robotic-assisted surgery, and improving outcomes in both elective and emergency settings. His major contributions include a landmark 2024 retrospective study comparing robotic and laparoscopic colorectal cancer resections, which demonstrated that robotic platforms offer superior ergonomics and high-definition visualization, leading to comparable early surgical outcomes in a busy district general hospital—a finding that has already garnered 17 citations. Kaul also authored a comprehensive 2025 systematic review of robotic colorectal surgery programs worldwide, detailing training protocols and the global shift toward consultant-led robotic education, with 4 citations. Additionally, his systematic review on emergency minimally invasive surgery for obturator hernias addresses a rare but high-morbidity condition, highlighting the potential of laparoscopic and robotic approaches in acute care. Through these works, Kaul has established himself as a key voice in the adoption of robotic surgery in colorectal practice, bridging the gap between innovation and real-world clinical implementation. His research not only advances surgical technique but also provides a roadmap for training the next generation of robotic surgeons.
