Floor Backes

Floor Backes is a gynecologic oncology surgeon focused on the surgical management of endometrial cancer, including sentinel lymph node biopsy, minimally invasive hysterectomy, and lymphadenectomy decision-making. Her research has addressed surgical quality metrics, the learning curve for robotic surgery, and the utility of sentinel lymph node mapping using indocyanine green in endometrial cancer staging. She has contributed to evaluating surgical outcomes and complications in diverse patient populations. Her translational work examines molecular predictors of lymph node involvement in apparently early-stage endometrial cancer.
