About

Dr. Celine Soriano is a colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes through innovative techniques and evidence-based practice. Her work centers on two key areas: the application of fluorescence imaging in minimally-invasive surgery and the analysis of national treatment patterns for rectal cancer. Dr. Soriano’s most cited paper, “Feasibility of injected indocyanine green for ureteral identification during robotic left-sided colorectal resections” (2021, 31 citations), demonstrates her pioneering contribution to intraoperative safety. By evaluating the use of indocyanine green (ICG) to illuminate the ureters during robotic surgery, she has helped reduce the risk of iatrogenic ureteral injury, a serious complication in colorectal procedures. This work has practical implications for enhancing the precision of robotic colorectal resections. Additionally, her study on “Contemporary, national patterns of surgery after preoperative therapy for stage II/III rectal adenocarcinoma” (2022) provides critical insights into how surgical approaches—including the use of minimally-invasive surgery—are being integrated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation across the United States. This research helps clarify evolving treatment paradigms for rectal cancer. Dr. Soriano’s contributions are advancing both the safety and strategic planning of colorectal surgery, making her a valuable voice in the field.
