About

Hyunmi Park is a leading colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive and robotic surgical techniques for the treatment of colorectal cancer, particularly low rectal cancer. Her major contributions center on refining and standardizing complex, sphincter-preserving procedures such as intersphincteric resection (ISR) and ultralow anterior resection. Park’s work provides critical anatomic landmarks and technical frameworks that enable surgeons to perform these challenging operations with greater precision and safety, ultimately improving oncologic outcomes while preserving quality of life. Her highly cited papers, including “Anatomic Landmarks for Transabdominal Robotic-Assisted Intersphincteric Dissection” (17 citations) and a comprehensive review of ISR (16 citations), have become essential references in the field. Park has also demonstrated that prior laparoscopic experience is not a prerequisite for successful robotic colorectal surgery, broadening access to these advanced techniques. Her innovative work extends to single-port robotic systems for right colectomy, showcasing her commitment to pushing the boundaries of surgical technology. With a career dedicated to education and technical excellence, Hyunmi Park is a pivotal figure in modern colorectal surgery.
