About
Aurore Van Troy is a leading breast cancer surgeon whose work has reshaped the landscape of oncoplastic and reconstructive surgery. Her primary research focuses on the refinement and validation of robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy (R-NSM), a minimally invasive technique that preserves the breast envelope while maximizing oncological safety. Van Troy’s landmark 2019 study, cited over 50 times, established the feasibility and learning curve for robotic NSM, providing a critical roadmap for surgeons adopting this complex procedure. She further advanced the field with a prospective comparison of robotic versus conventional NSM, demonstrating that the robotic approach offers superior cosmetic outcomes and reduced morbidity without compromising cancer control. Her comprehensive four-year cohort analysis on mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction has helped standardize best practices, showing that reconstruction can be safely integrated into the oncologic plan. Beyond technique, Van Troy contributed vital data on surgical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic, documenting how a major French cancer center adapted to unprecedented resource constraints. With her work accumulating over 100 citations, Van Troy is recognized as a pioneer in robotic breast surgery, and her studies are essential reading for any surgeon seeking to master modern, patient-centered breast cancer care.
