About

Jianjun Leng is a pioneering hepatobiliary surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex liver and bile duct cancers. His landmark 2016 study on robotic radical resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma, cited over 100 times, established the feasibility and safety of robotic surgery for this challenging malignancy, demonstrating improved perioperative outcomes and promising long-term survival rates. This work has been instrumental in shifting surgical paradigms, offering patients a less invasive alternative to traditional open procedures. Beyond this seminal contribution, Leng’s broader research portfolio encompasses optimizing surgical strategies for perihilar tumors, refining lymphadenectomy protocols, and evaluating oncologic outcomes in robotic hepatobiliary surgery. His studies have collectively garnered significant attention, with his most-cited paper alone accumulating 101 citations, underscoring its impact on clinical practice. Through rigorous clinical series and comparative analyses, Leng has helped define the learning curve and technical nuances of robotic hepatobiliary surgery, training a generation of surgeons in these advanced techniques. His work continues to shape the future of surgical oncology, bridging the gap between technological innovation and improved patient care.
