About
Dr. Lily Zhang is a pioneering hepatobiliary surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive liver surgery, with a particular focus on robotic techniques. Her most notable contribution, the 2025 study "Evaluation of outcomes of robotic liver surgery using the IWATE criteria," provides critical validation for standardizing complexity assessment in robotic liver resections. By analyzing a single surgeon's experience, Dr. Zhang demonstrated how the IWATE criteria can reliably predict surgical outcomes, offering a framework that enhances patient safety and procedural planning. This work has already garnered 3 citations, signaling its growing influence in the field. Beyond this study, Dr. Zhang's research addresses the broader integration of robotic platforms into hepatobiliary practice, aiming to expand access to high-precision, less invasive treatments. Her dedication to evidence-based surgical innovation positions her as a key voice in shaping the future of robotic liver surgery, making her a valuable resource for trainees and colleagues alike.
