Dr. Kaitlyn Kelly, a surgical oncologist at UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center, specializes in applying minimally invasive surgical techniques to gastrointestinal surgery that has traditionally required large incisions. These approaches, which include robotically assisted surgery or laparoscopy, often mean less pain and a shorter recovery time for patients. In this video, Dr. Kelly discusses how UC San Diego is exploring minimally invasive techniques for esophagectomy, gastrectomy, and cytoreduction with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC).
