About

Chih-Chiao Lee is a leading urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on comparative effectiveness in prostate cancer surgery, with a particular focus on robot-assisted techniques. His major contribution lies in leveraging large-scale, population-based data to provide real-world evidence on surgical outcomes. In his landmark study, Lee analyzed Taiwan’s entire National Health Insurance Research Database from 2018 to 2021, comparing perioperative outcomes, postoperative complications, and survival rates across open, laparoscopic, and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. This work, though recently published, has already garnered attention for its methodological rigor and clinical relevance, offering critical insights into the benefits and trade-offs of robotic surgery in a national cohort. Lee’s research directly informs surgical decision-making and healthcare policy, highlighting the value of big data in urology. His ability to translate complex administrative data into actionable clinical knowledge marks him as a rising authority in evidence-based surgical oncology, with his findings poised to shape future guidelines and patient care strategies.
