About

Tamisa Koythong is a pioneering gynecologic surgeon whose research sits at the intersection of minimally invasive surgery, robotic technology, and women's pelvic health. With a body of work accumulating nearly 185 citations, Koythong has established herself as a leading voice in the advancement of robotic-assisted transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (R-vNOTES), a cutting-edge approach that minimizes surgical trauma by eliminating abdominal incisions entirely. Her comparative studies on hysterectomy techniques and sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse have provided clinicians with critical safety and outcomes data to guide adoption of these novel platforms. Koythong has also made significant contributions to endometriosis care, particularly through her innovative application of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging to protect ureters during complex resections — work that spans surgeon training levels and real-world feasibility assessments. Her learning curve analyses offer invaluable guidance for institutions introducing R-vNOTES programs. Additionally, her attention to postoperative pain management in chronic pelvic pain patients reflects a holistic, patient-centered approach. Koythong's research collectively advances safer, less invasive surgical options for women facing benign gynecologic conditions.
