About

Lina Antoun is a leading gynaecological surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for benign gynaecological conditions, particularly uterine fibroids and hysterectomy. She was the lead author of the 2024 European Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy (ESGE) Good Practice Recommendations on surgical techniques for abdominal and laparoscopic myomectomy, providing essential guidance for the safe removal of uterine fibroids—the most common benign tumours of the female reproductive tract. Her landmark LAVA randomised controlled trial (2025), comparing laparoscopic versus abdominal hysterectomy for benign disease across 10 NHS hospitals in the UK, demonstrated that laparoscopic hysterectomy offers superior recovery outcomes without compromising safety. With a growing citation impact and a portfolio of work that directly shapes clinical practice, Antoun is recognised for her expertise-based trial design and her commitment to evidence-based surgical innovation. Her contributions are instrumental in reducing surgical morbidity and improving quality of life for women undergoing gynaecological surgery.
