About

Dr. Mi Sook Jeon is a pioneering surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive thyroid surgery, particularly through robotic-assisted techniques. Her most notable contribution is the development and clinical validation of the single-port robotic areolar approach thyroidectomy, a groundbreaking procedure that reduces surgical trauma and improves cosmetic outcomes by accessing the thyroid through a single incision in the areolar region. In her landmark 2023 paper, Dr. Jeon presented the first clinical experience with this technique using the da Vinci SP system, demonstrating its feasibility and safety in a preliminary cohort. This work has garnered 14 citations and represents a significant step forward in the evolution of scarless thyroid surgery. By integrating robotic precision with a remote access approach, Dr. Jeon has expanded the possibilities for patients seeking both oncologic efficacy and aesthetic preservation. Her research addresses a critical gap in minimally invasive endocrine surgery, positioning her as an innovator in the field. Dr. Jeon’s contributions are particularly impactful for surgeons and researchers exploring next-generation robotic platforms and patient-centered surgical innovations.
