About
Dr. Chun-Nan Yeh is a leading hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeon whose research has fundamentally shaped the modern approach to complex pancreatic surgery. His work centers on refining surgical techniques and improving outcomes for patients with pancreatic and periampullary tumors. Dr. Yeh’s most impactful contribution is his seminal 2016 systematic review on minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy (MIPD), which critically evaluated the feasibility and advantages of laparoscopic and robotic approaches. This highly cited work (62 citations) provided crucial evidence that, in experienced hands, MIPD offers significant benefits over traditional open surgery, including reduced blood loss and shorter hospital stays, while maintaining oncologic safety. By systematically analyzing the emerging data, Dr. Yeh helped establish a framework for the safe adoption of these advanced techniques, directly influencing surgical practice worldwide. His rigorous analysis continues to guide surgeons and researchers navigating the complexities of pancreatic surgery, cementing his role as a key authority in the field’s evolution toward less invasive, patient-centered care.
