About
Kalliopi Kokkali is a leading figure in the advancement of robotic-assisted gynecologic surgery, with a focused research portfolio dedicated to optimizing operative efficiency, patient recovery, and surgical innovation. Her most significant contribution is the development of the “Iavazzo score,” a novel preoperative tool designed to predict the duration of robotic-assisted gynecological procedures. This score directly addresses a key limitation of robotic surgery—prolonged operative time—and provides clinicians with a practical framework for surgical planning and resource allocation. The work has garnered 7 citations, establishing a foundational metric in the field. Kokkali has also been instrumental in demonstrating the feasibility and safety of same-day discharge following robotic hysterectomy for endometrial cancer, a practice that enhances patient comfort and reduces healthcare costs. Her exploration of single-incision robotic myomectomy further underscores her commitment to minimizing surgical invasiveness, with research defining patient selection criteria, learning curves, and cost implications. Through these contributions, Kokkali is shaping a more efficient, patient-centered future for minimally invasive gynecologic oncology.
