About

Dr. Anusak Yiengpruksawan is a pioneering surgeon whose work has fundamentally shaped the field of robotic hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) surgery. His primary research focuses on establishing the safety, feasibility, and standardization of robotic approaches for complex procedures of the liver, pancreas, and biliary system. Dr. Yiengpruksawan’s most significant contribution is leading the development of the first international consensus statements on robotic hepatectomy and robotic pancreatic surgery, each cited over 200 and 20 times respectively, which have become foundational guidelines for surgeons worldwide. He has also demonstrated the safety and efficacy of robotic distal pancreatectomy and total pancreatectomy, with his work on spleen-preserving techniques cited dozens of times. Beyond clinical outcomes, Dr. Yiengpruksawan is an innovator in surgical education, having designed the first 3D-printed dry lab models for simulating robotic pancreaticojejunostomy, a training tool that has advanced the learning curve for complex robotic reconstructions. With a career spanning over a decade of high-impact publications, he has helped transform minimally invasive HPB surgery from a controversial frontier into a standard of care.
