About
Dr. Rosanna G. van Langen is a leading surgical outcomes researcher whose work centers on the volume-outcome relationship in complex pancreatic surgery. Her most impactful study, "Impact of Merging two high-volume Centers on Patient Outcome," investigates whether the well-established benefits of high surgical volume plateau beyond 40-50 annual pancreatoduodenectomies. By analyzing the merger of two already high-volume centers, Dr. van Langen provides critical evidence that even among elite institutions, consolidation can further improve patient outcomes. This work challenges prevailing assumptions about volume thresholds and offers actionable insights for healthcare policy and hospital network design. With her research accumulating citations and shaping surgical practice, Dr. van Langen has established herself as a key voice in optimizing care delivery for high-risk procedures. Her findings are essential reading for surgeons, hospital administrators, and health services researchers seeking to understand the true limits of the volume-outcome paradigm.
