About
Dr. Houqiong Ju is a pioneering colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on advancing robotic surgical techniques for rectal cancer, with a particular emphasis on optimizing patient outcomes and quality of life. Their major contributions center on natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) in robotic surgery, demonstrating through multicenter propensity score-matched analyses that NOSE approaches offer superior recovery compared to traditional transabdominal extraction for early-stage rectal cancer. Dr. Ju has also conducted groundbreaking work on sexual function preservation in early-onset overweight male patients following robotic surgery, addressing a critical yet underexplored aspect of postoperative care. Their 2025 study comparing transanal versus transvaginal NOSE in female patients provides crucial evidence for selecting the optimal extraction route in robotic mid-rectal cancer resection. With a growing citation impact—including 4 citations for their landmark 2024 NOSE study—Dr. Ju’s work is shaping clinical guidelines. Their research on high versus low tie ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery further refines surgical precision. Dr. Ju’s dedication to patient-centered outcomes and minimally invasive innovation positions them as a rising leader in robotic colorectal surgery.
