About
Dr. Sarika Gupta is a leading gynecologic oncologist whose research has fundamentally advanced the surgical staging and treatment of gynecologic cancers. Her primary focus lies in optimizing lymph node assessment for endometrial cancer, a critical step in determining prognosis and guiding adjuvant therapy. Her landmark 2016 study on sentinel lymph node mapping, cited over 127 times, demonstrated that this targeted technique significantly increases the detection of metastasis compared to traditional lymphadenectomy, offering patients a less morbid yet more accurate staging approach. Dr. Gupta has also been a pioneer in the adoption of robotic-assisted surgery, authoring a key 2015 review that detailed the indications and techniques for robotic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy. This work helped establish the current standard of care, where robotic surgery is the predominant method for treating early-stage endometrial, cervical, and ovarian cancers in the United States. Through her influential publications, Dr. Gupta has directly shaped modern surgical practice, improving both the precision of cancer staging and the quality of life for countless women.
