About
Carlotta Imholz is a pioneering microsurgeon and researcher whose work is reshaping the landscape of lymphatic reconstruction. Her primary research focuses on advanced surgical treatments for lymphedema, particularly in the challenging head and neck region. She is at the forefront of integrating robotic technology into supermicrosurgery, a field demanding exceptional precision. Her landmark 2025 study, which has already garnered significant attention, reports on the first-ever robotic-assisted lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) performed in the head and neck area. This groundbreaking work, cited 6 times in its first year, not only demonstrates the technical feasibility of the procedure but also provides a crucial systematic review of lymphatic reconstruction for facial and cervical lymphedema—a condition for which no formal management guidelines currently exist. By addressing this critical gap in care for head and neck cancer survivors, Imholz is establishing new standards for treatment. Her contributions are paving the way for less invasive, more effective solutions for patients suffering from debilitating swelling, marking her as a rising leader in the field of reconstructive microsurgery.
