About
Dr. Mohamed Elessawy is a dedicated gynecologic surgeon whose research centers on refining surgical approaches for benign and malignant gynecologic conditions, with a particular emphasis on hysterectomy outcomes and minimally invasive techniques. His work critically evaluates the balance between innovation and patient safety. In a key 2014 study (17 citations), he developed a preoperative scoring system to predict complication rates in hysterectomies for benign disease, providing a valuable tool for surgical risk stratification. Dr. Elessawy has also been at the forefront of comparing robotic-assisted and conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy, using a novel postoperative telephone-based questionnaire (2020, 17 citations) to assess quality-of-life benefits. More recently, he has tackled the significant controversy surrounding surgical treatment for cervical cancer. His 2021 systematic review (7 citations) rigorously compared disease-free survival and morbidity between open radical hysterectomy and minimally invasive surgery, engaging expert opinion to contextualize the landmark LACC trial findings. Through these contributions, Dr. Elessawy provides critical, evidence-based insights that help guide clinical decision-making in modern gynecologic oncology and benign surgery.
