About
Larisa Shagabayeva is a leading thoracic surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for lung cancer treatment. Her work centers on the comparative effectiveness of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) for managing stage II-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In her most-cited paper, "Open, Video- and Robot-Assisted Thoracoscopic Lobectomy for Stage II-IIIA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer" (2022, 22 citations), Shagabayeva provides critical insights into the perioperative outcomes of these approaches, demonstrating that both VATS and RATS offer significant advantages over traditional open surgery, including reduced complications and shorter hospital stays. This contribution has helped shape clinical decision-making for complex lung cancer cases, offering surgeons evidence-based guidance on selecting the optimal technique. Her work underscores a commitment to improving patient recovery and surgical precision, positioning her as a key voice in the evolution of thoracic oncology. Shagabayeva’s research continues to influence surgical protocols and inspire further investigation into robotic applications in cancer care.
