About
Pernille Bjerre Trent is a health services researcher whose work sits at the intersection of gynecologic oncology and health economics. Her primary research focus is on optimizing surgical staging strategies for endometrial carcinoma, with a particular emphasis on the comparative effectiveness and cost-efficiency of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLN) versus traditional lymphadenectomy. In her landmark 2024 study, Trent conducted a rigorous cost-effectiveness analysis demonstrating that implementing an SLN algorithm for intermediate- and high-risk endometrial carcinoma patients can achieve comparable oncologic outcomes while significantly reducing procedural costs and morbidity. This work, already garnering early citations, provides critical evidence for clinical guideline committees and hospital administrators considering the adoption of less invasive staging protocols. By quantifying both clinical benefits and economic impacts, Trent bridges a crucial gap between surgical innovation and real-world healthcare resource allocation. Her research carries substantial implications for improving patient quality of life and healthcare system sustainability, positioning her as an emerging authority in value-based gynecologic oncology care.
