About
Eun Ji Park is a leading colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on the comparative outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer. Her major contributions center on demonstrating the clinical advantages of robotic techniques, particularly in reducing postoperative inflammatory stress and improving recovery for colon cancer patients. In her landmark 2024 study, she used propensity score-matched analysis to show that robotic surgery leads to significantly lower inflammatory markers after colon cancer resection, a finding that has already garnered nine citations and influenced perioperative care protocols. Park also conducted a comprehensive nationwide analysis of over 50,000 colorectal cancer surgeries in Korea from 2019 to 2023, revealing a dramatic shift toward robotic approaches—robotic surgery rates rose from 17% to 44% during this period. This work, published in 2025, provides crucial real-world evidence on the safety and feasibility of robotic surgery across diverse patient populations. Her research has been instrumental in guiding surgical decision-making and health policy, establishing her as a key voice in the evolution of minimally invasive colorectal cancer treatment.
