About
Tina Pasciuto is a gynecologic oncology researcher whose work centers on minimally invasive surgical approaches for endometrial cancer, with a particular focus on optimizing outcomes for high-risk patient populations. Her research has made significant contributions to understanding the comparative effectiveness of laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgical techniques in cancer staging and treatment. Pasciuto's most influential work, a 2018 multi-institutional analysis garnering 96 citations, examined surgical outcomes in obese and extremely obese endometrial cancer patients—a clinically challenging group where surgical approach can dramatically affect recovery. This line of inquiry extended into large-scale retrospective and prospective investigations, including the notable ROMANHY Trial, a multicentric randomized study evaluating the role of uterine manipulators in minimally invasive hysterectomy and their impact on lymph vascular space invasion. Her research portfolio reflects a consistent commitment to vulnerable patient subgroups, including elderly patients and those with measurable frailty, where she has applied tools like the Modified Frailty Index to predict surgical complications. With cumulative citations exceeding 180 across her key publications, Pasciuto's work meaningfully informs surgical decision-making in gynecologic oncology, helping clinicians tailor minimally invasive strategies to individual patient risk profiles.
