About

Cristina Masuet‐Aumatell is a leading researcher in thoracic oncology, with a focus on minimally invasive surgical techniques for lung cancer. Her work primarily explores the optimization of robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) and its impact on patient outcomes. A key contribution is her comparative study of total thoracoscopic and robotic surgery for lung cancer lymphadenectomy, which demonstrated the efficacy of RATS in achieving thorough lymph node dissection—a critical factor in staging and prognosis. This highly cited paper (17 citations) has helped clarify the role of robotics in early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. Masuet‐Aumatell has also advanced the understanding of how preoperative nutritional and systemic inflammatory status influences perioperative outcomes following Da Vinci robot-assisted lung cancer surgery. Her research in this area (8 citations) highlights the importance of patient optimization before surgery, linking nutritional deficits and inflammation to increased postoperative complications. By integrating surgical technique with patient physiology, her work provides actionable insights for improving recovery and survival. Her studies are essential reading for surgeons and oncologists seeking to refine robotic approaches and personalize perioperative care in thoracic oncology.
