About

Hyun-Woong Cho is a leading figure in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a focused expertise in single-port laparoscopic and robotic techniques. His research centers on comparing the clinical efficacy and surgical outcomes of single-port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) against the cutting-edge Da Vinci single-port robotic system (SPRS). Cho’s major contributions include pioneering studies that evaluate perioperative outcomes—such as operative time, blood loss, and complication rates—for procedures like hysterectomy, ovarian cystectomy, and myomectomy. His work on single-incision robotic sacrocolpopexy further demonstrates his commitment to advancing pelvic floor reconstruction, meticulously analyzing learning curves and performance across different Da Vinci surgical platforms. With his most-cited paper garnering 16 citations and a second key study receiving 10, Cho’s research is already shaping clinical decision-making and training protocols in robotic surgery. His comparative analyses provide essential evidence for surgeons transitioning to single-port platforms, highlighting both the benefits and challenges of these innovations. Cho’s dedication to refining surgical techniques and improving patient recovery positions him as a vital contributor to the future of gynecologic surgery.
