About
Dr. Jaewoo Kwon is a pioneering hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeon whose work is reshaping minimally invasive surgery for complex abdominal tumors. His research centers on robotic and laparoscopic approaches to pancreatic and biliary procedures, with a focus on improving patient outcomes through advanced surgical techniques. Dr. Kwon’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic distal pancreatectomy for left-sided pancreatic tumors, as evidenced by his landmark study of 228 consecutive cases (61 citations). He has also been instrumental in comparing robotic versus laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy, using propensity score matching to validate the robotic approach’s advantages in perioperative and oncologic outcomes (23 and 16 citations, respectively). Beyond the pancreas, Dr. Kwon has advanced robotic resection of choledochal cysts in adults, showing superior outcomes over laparoscopic methods (35 citations), and has explored robotic left-side hepatectomy (24 citations). His recent multicenter analysis of perioperative textbook outcomes after minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (10 citations) further underscores his leadership in standardizing quality metrics. With over 160 citations across his most influential works, Dr. Kwon is a driving force in the evolution of robotic hepatobiliary surgery.
