Susan Khalil

About

Dr. Susan Khalil is a leading figure in gynecologic oncology, with a focused expertise in advancing surgical approaches for ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers. Her major contributions center on evaluating and refining minimally invasive techniques to improve patient outcomes. Dr. Khalil’s seminal 2013 work, "Role of Minimally Invasive Surgery in Ovarian Cancer," which has garnered 77 citations, established a critical framework for the field. She further advanced this area with a highly influential 2014 comparative study (46 citations) that rigorously assessed perioperative outcomes and complication rates between conventional and robotic-assisted laparoscopy across all stages of these cancers. Notably, Dr. Khalil also pioneered a hybrid technique that synergizes conventional and robotic-assisted laparoscopy for comprehensive staging and debulking, demonstrating her innovative approach to complex surgical challenges. Her collective research, with over 127 citations from these key works, has significantly shaped the evidence base for minimally invasive surgery in gynecologic oncology, offering patients less invasive options without compromising oncologic efficacy. Dr. Khalil’s work remains essential reading for surgeons and researchers dedicated to optimizing surgical care in this challenging disease.
