About

Bola Jeong is a head and neck surgeon whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly trans-oral robotic surgery (TORS) for head and neck cancers. Her research has centered on evaluating the safety, feasibility, and outcomes of novel robotic platforms, such as the Medrobotics Flex® system, in treating complex tumors of the upper aerodigestive tract. In her landmark study, "Trans-oral robotic surgery for head and neck cancers using the Medrobotics Flex® system: the Adelaide cohort" (2021), Jeong and her team demonstrated the system's efficacy in accessing difficult-to-reach anatomical sites, reporting promising results for tumor clearance and functional preservation. This work, which has garnered 8 citations, underscores her contribution to expanding the surgical armamentarium for head and neck cancers, offering patients reduced morbidity compared to traditional open approaches. Jeong's research has implications for improving quality of life in cancer survivors, and her findings have been presented at international conferences, establishing her as a rising authority in robotic head and neck surgery. Her dedication to integrating cutting-edge technology with clinical practice continues to shape the future of oncologic surgery.
