About

Ebru Kirbiyik is a surgical researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques in hernia repair and colorectal oncology. Her key research areas include comparing robotic and laparoscopic surgical approaches, with a particular emphasis on optimizing patient outcomes through evidence-based evaluation of operative techniques. Her most cited study (28 citations) provides a critical comparison of laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (L-TEP) versus robotic transabdominal preperitoneal (R-TAPP) inguinal hernia repair, offering valuable insights into short- and long-term outcomes that help guide clinical decision-making. Additionally, her work on robotic versus laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer (8 citations) contributes to the growing body of literature evaluating oncological safety and surgical efficacy in colorectal procedures. Through these comparative effectiveness studies, Kirbiyik has helped clarify the relative benefits and limitations of robotic and laparoscopic approaches, providing surgeons with data-driven evidence to inform their practice. Her research is particularly relevant as surgical robotics continue to expand, and her findings support the ongoing refinement of minimally invasive surgical protocols for better patient recovery and long-term results.
