About
Dr. Hien Duy Pham is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for complex congenital conditions in children. Based at Vietnam National Children’s Hospital, Dr. Pham’s primary research focuses on robotic-assisted surgery for hepatobiliary disorders, particularly choledochal cysts. His landmark 2019 study, "Robotic-assisted surgery for choledochal cyst in children: early experience at Vietnam National Children’s Hospital," with 21 citations, represents one of the first comprehensive reports on robotic cyst excision and hepaticojejunostomy in a Southeast Asian pediatric population. This work demonstrated the feasibility, safety, and superior cosmetic outcomes of robotic approaches compared to traditional open surgery, establishing a new standard for pediatric hepatobiliary care in resource-limited settings. Dr. Pham’s contributions extend beyond technique; he has been instrumental in training the next generation of Vietnamese pediatric surgeons in robotic platforms, significantly reducing operative times and complication rates. His early experience has inspired broader adoption of robotic surgery for biliary atresia and liver tumors, positioning him as a key figure in the global effort to make advanced pediatric surgical care accessible in developing nations.
