About
Dr. Hillary Wagner is a leading researcher in urogynecology and pelvic reconstructive surgery, with a focused expertise in postoperative outcomes and surgical innovation for pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Her most cited work, a 2018 study comparing urinary retention rates after vaginal versus robotic transabdominal POP repair, has garnered 33 citations and fundamentally advanced clinical understanding of this common complication. By identifying that postoperative urinary retention occurs in 13-32% of POP patients, Dr. Wagner’s research provides critical risk stratification data that directly informs surgical decision-making and patient counseling. Her comparative analysis between transvaginal and robotic approaches has helped surgeons weigh the trade-offs of minimally invasive techniques, particularly regarding recovery and catheterization needs. Beyond this landmark paper, Dr. Wagner’s broader contributions include elucidating risk factors for surgical complications and refining perioperative protocols to enhance patient safety. Her work is widely cited by clinicians and researchers seeking evidence-based guidelines for POP repair, making her a respected voice in women’s health and surgical outcomes research.
