About

Dr. Faqing Liang is a pioneering breast surgeon whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for breast cancer treatment, particularly through endoscopic and robotic-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) with immediate implant-based reconstruction. His major contributions include developing the novel "reverse-sequence" endoscopic NSM, which dramatically reduces operation time for bilateral procedures, and the "air inflation adjustment technique" that expands surgical candidacy to patients with large or severely ptotic breasts—a group traditionally considered contraindicated for such approaches. Liang’s work directly addresses key limitations of prior methods: high costs of robotic surgery, inconvenient operation of conventional endoscopy, and prolonged operative times. His most cited paper (2021, 32 citations) established the feasibility of endoscopic-assisted NSM with direct-to-implant reconstruction, while his 2025 prospective cohort studies (each with 3 citations) validate the safety and aesthetic outcomes of his reverse-sequence technique in challenging patient populations. By subverting traditional surgical paradigms, Liang has made breast reconstruction more accessible, less invasive, and more cosmetically favorable, with his innovations poised to become new standards in oncoplastic surgery.
