About
Hyun Jung Min is a pioneering head and neck surgeon whose work has redefined the boundaries of minimally invasive oncologic surgery. Her primary research focuses on developing scarless, robotic-assisted techniques for treating early head and neck cancers and differentiated thyroid carcinoma. Dr. Min’s major contributions include the validation of two groundbreaking procedures: the robotic selective neck dissection using a gasless postauricular facelift approach, and the robotic lateral neck dissection via a gasless unilateral axillobreast approach. These innovations allow surgeons to perform radical lymph node clearance while completely avoiding visible neck scars—a transformative advance for patient quality of life. Her seminal 2013 paper on the facelift approach has garnered 36 citations, and her 2014 study on the axillobreast technique has received 20 citations, establishing her as a key figure in the field. By proving the technical feasibility and intraoperative safety of these methods, Dr. Min has opened the door to a new era of cosmetically superior, yet oncologically sound, surgical care for patients with head and neck malignancies.
