About
Dr. Sandra Lopez is a leading figure in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a focused expertise in advancing surgical techniques for benign hysterectomy. Her major contribution lies in rigorously comparing emerging technologies to established standards, most notably through her landmark 2015 study, "A Comparison of Outcomes Between Robotic-Assisted, Single-Site Laparoscopy Versus Laparoendoscopic Single Site for Benign Hysterectomy." This work, which has garnered 46 citations, provides critical evidence on the relative benefits and limitations of robotic-assisted single-site laparoscopy versus laparoendoscopic single-site surgery, helping surgeons make informed decisions to optimize patient recovery and reduce operative morbidity. By systematically evaluating perioperative outcomes, Dr. Lopez has directly influenced clinical practice in gynecologic surgery, shaping how surgeons approach complex hysterectomies with the goal of minimizing invasiveness. Her research is a cornerstone for those exploring the intersection of robotics and single-site access, and she is recognized for her commitment to evidence-based innovation that prioritizes patient safety and surgical efficiency.
