About
Dr. Eun Ji Lee is a pioneering gynecologic surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of cervical cancer and uterine fibroids. Her work directly addresses critical challenges in surgical oncology, particularly the debate over the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic and robotic radical hysterectomy versus traditional abdominal approaches. Dr. Lee is the lead investigator of the SOLUTION trial, a multi-centre phase II study evaluating whether endoscopic staplers can inhibit tumor spillage during minimally invasive cervical cancer surgery—a response to findings from the landmark Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer trial. This protocol paper has garnered 15 citations, underscoring its relevance to ongoing efforts to improve oncologic outcomes. Additionally, Dr. Lee has made significant contributions to reproductive surgery through the VALENTINE trial, a randomized controlled pilot study examining the effect and safety of diluted vasopressin injections to reduce bleeding during robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy. Her work on this topic has accumulated 11 citations across two publications, highlighting its clinical importance for women with uterine fibroids. By rigorously testing surgical innovations, Dr. Lee is shaping safer, more effective standards of care in gynecologic oncology and minimally invasive surgery.
