About
Xingnan Zhou is a pioneering researcher in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a primary focus on advancing transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) and robotic-assisted techniques. Her major contributions include establishing the learning curve and safety outcomes for robotic-assisted vNOTES hysterectomy, as demonstrated in her highly cited 2022 case series of 84 patients (28 citations), which provides critical guidance for surgeons adopting this innovative approach. She has also developed and refined techniques for apical prolapse management, notably through her work on high uterosacral ligament suspension in vNOTES (2020, 10 citations), offering less invasive solutions for pelvic organ prolapse. Zhou’s research has significantly impacted the field by validating the feasibility and safety of combining robotic platforms with natural orifice surgery, reducing patient recovery times and surgical trauma. Her work is widely referenced by clinicians and researchers seeking to integrate these advanced methods into practice, and she is recognized as a key contributor to the evolution of scarless gynecologic surgery.
