About
Elisavet Kotsi is a pediatric surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for congenital urological conditions in children. Her primary contributions center on the comparative effectiveness of open, laparoscopic, and robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty for treating ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). In her most cited work, a 2024 systematic review protocol, Kotsi establishes a rigorous framework to evaluate outcomes across these surgical approaches, addressing the critical question of whether robot-assisted surgery truly represents the gold standard for pediatric patients. This research has already garnered 4 citations, reflecting its timely relevance as robotic surgery becomes increasingly prevalent in pediatric urology. Kotsi’s work is notable for its methodological rigor and its potential to guide clinical decision-making, helping surgeons and families choose the safest, most effective treatment for children with UPJO. By systematically comparing complication rates, operative times, and success rates, she is contributing to evidence-based standards that could shape future pediatric surgical practice. Her research sits at the intersection of surgical innovation and patient-centered outcomes, making her a valuable voice in the ongoing evolution of pediatric minimally invasive surgery.
