About

Dr. Chel Hun Choi is a leading gynecologic oncologist and surgeon whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for the treatment of gynecologic cancers and benign conditions. Her major contributions lie in pioneering and evaluating robotic and laparoscopic approaches to improve patient outcomes. Dr. Choi’s most cited work, a 2014 study comparing robotic versus laparoscopic radical hysterectomy in cervical cancer patients (39 citations), established critical benchmarks in surgical oncology. She has also been instrumental in developing single-site robotic surgery for gynecologic cancers (24 citations), demonstrating its feasibility for early-stage disease. Notably, Dr. Choi leads the multi-center SOLUTION trial (15 citations), a phase II study designed to address tumor spillage concerns in minimally invasive cervical cancer surgery—a direct response to landmark trials showing inferior outcomes with laparoscopic approaches. Her expertise extends to high para-aortic lymph node dissection (7 citations) and the evaluation of articulating laparoscopic instruments for adnexectomy and hysterectomy. Through her rigorous clinical research, Dr. Choi continues to shape safer, more effective surgical standards, directly impacting the care of women with gynecologic malignancies.
