About
Dr. Aline Broch is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work is redefining the boundaries of minimally invasive surgery for children. Her research centers on the safety, feasibility, and outcomes of robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery (RALS) in pediatric populations, with a particular focus on oncology and urology. Dr. Broch’s landmark study, “Robotic Surgery in Pediatric Oncology: Lessons Learned from the First 100 Tumors—A Nationwide Experience” (52 citations), established critical benchmarks for robotic tumor resection in children, demonstrating its viability in complex oncologic cases. She has also made seminal contributions to pediatric urology, leading a multicenter prospective study comparing transperitoneal versus retroperitoneal robotic pyeloplasty (24 citations) and proving the safety of day-surgery retroperitoneal pyeloplasty (16 citations). Her prospective observational work on adverse events in a multidisciplinary pediatric robotic program (16 citations) provides essential data on morbidity, directly informing clinical protocols. Through these high-impact studies, Dr. Broch has not only advanced surgical technique but also championed a shift toward safer, less invasive, and more efficient care for children undergoing major surgery.
