About

Vanesa Gregorc is a surgical oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques in breast cancer surgery, particularly through robot-assisted approaches. Her most-cited work, "Robot-assisted Nipple Sparing Mastectomy: Recent Advancements and Ongoing Controversies" (2023, 14 citations), critically evaluates the evolving role of robotic platforms in preserving the nipple-areola complex during mastectomy—a procedure that balances oncologic safety with aesthetic outcomes. Gregorc’s contributions lie in synthesizing emerging evidence on surgical precision, complication rates, and patient selection criteria, addressing key debates such as tumor proximity to the nipple and long-term recurrence risks. By highlighting both technological promise and unresolved challenges, her research guides surgeons in adopting these innovations while maintaining rigorous standards. Gregorc’s work is notable for its timely engagement with a rapidly shifting field, offering practical insights for clinicians navigating the integration of robotics into breast oncology. Her scholarship underscores a commitment to improving surgical outcomes and quality of life for patients, positioning her as a thoughtful voice in the ongoing evolution of breast cancer care.
