About

Dr. In Seok Choi is a leading figure in minimally invasive hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, with a career defined by rigorous, multi-institutional research that has shaped surgical practice in Korea and beyond. His foundational work includes a landmark multicenter study on laparoscopic major liver resection, which analyzed over 1,000 cases across a decade, establishing the safety and feasibility of this advanced technique. This highly cited paper (69 citations) remains a critical reference for surgeons adopting laparoscopic approaches. Dr. Choi has also been at the forefront of innovation in gallbladder surgery, demonstrating that robotic single-site cholecystectomy significantly reduces postoperative pain compared to both single-incision and conventional multiport techniques. More recently, he has contributed to the standardization of complex procedures through a large-scale analysis of over 1,500 minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomies, defining perioperative textbook outcomes to benchmark surgical quality. His work, characterized by large, multicenter registry data, provides evidence-based guidance for improving patient recovery and outcomes in high-stakes abdominal surgery.
