About

Dr. Carol Conell is a leading health services researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of surgical oncology, minimally invasive techniques, and patient safety in gynecologic oncology. Her major contributions center on evaluating outcomes and complications in women with endometrial cancer, particularly through comparative effectiveness research on robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic hysterectomy. Her 2016 study on venous thromboembolism following minimally invasive surgery (49 citations) provided critical evidence for risk stratification and prophylaxis in this population. That same year, her classification of postoperative complications in robotic-assisted compared with laparoscopic hysterectomy (34 citations) offered surgeons a standardized framework for assessing procedural safety. Dr. Conell has also advanced surgical education, demonstrating in a 2017 study (8 citations) that resident participation in minimally invasive hysterectomy does not compromise patient outcomes, thereby supporting the integration of teaching into complex oncologic procedures. Her work has been instrumental in shaping clinical guidelines and informing surgical decision-making, with her most cited papers collectively influencing perioperative care and training practices. Dr. Conell’s research exemplifies how rigorous outcomes analysis can improve both the quality and safety of surgical care for women with endometrial cancer.
