About
Maria Lucia Gagliardi is a leading figure in gynecologic oncology, whose work has significantly advanced minimally invasive surgical approaches for endometrial cancer. Her research focuses on comparing the safety, efficacy, and recovery outcomes of novel surgical techniques, particularly laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) surgery and robotic-assisted hysterectomy. In her landmark multicentre study, she demonstrated that total LESS hysterectomy offers comparable perioperative outcomes to robotic hysterectomy in endometrial cancer patients, with reduced operative times and similar complication rates—a finding that has helped shape clinical guidelines for surgical decision-making. This highly cited work (35 citations) underscores her commitment to evidence-based practice and patient-centered care. Beyond this, Gagliardi has contributed to studies on surgical innovation, pain management, and quality of life in gynecologic oncology, earning recognition as a pioneer in the field. Her research has been instrumental in expanding access to less invasive treatments, reducing hospital stays, and improving recovery for women with endometrial cancer. As a mentor and collaborator, she continues to drive forward the integration of advanced surgical technologies into routine clinical practice.
