About

Chew-Wun Wu is a pioneering figure in the field of minimally invasive gastric cancer surgery, with a career defined by advancing robotic and laparoscopic techniques. His major contributions center on demonstrating the feasibility, safety, and superior operative outcomes of robotic gastrectomy compared to both open and laparoscopic approaches. In his landmark 2012 study, which has garnered 133 citations, Wu provided some of the earliest evidence for robotic gastrectomy’s benefits. He further solidified this impact with a 2014 paper (102 citations) that rigorously compared the learning curves of laparoscopic and robotic gastrectomy, offering crucial insights for surgical training. Wu also addressed the growing elderly population, showing in a 2017 study that minimally invasive surgery is particularly advantageous for octogenarian and older gastric cancer patients. Through these works, Wu has not only shaped modern surgical protocols but also provided a roadmap for adopting new technologies, making him a key authority in the evolution of gastric cancer treatment.
