About
Hyunsuk Suh is a leading endocrine surgeon whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive and robotic approaches to thyroid and adrenal surgery, with a particular emphasis on improving surgical safety, oncological completeness, and cosmetic outcomes. Her most cited paper, "Surgical safety and oncological completeness of robotic thyroidectomy for thyroid carcinoma larger than 2 cm" (58 citations), provides critical evidence that robotic techniques can be safely and effectively applied to larger thyroid cancers, challenging traditional size limitations and expanding surgical options for patients. Suh has also investigated how patient-specific factors, such as body habitus, influence surgical outcomes in robotic thyroidectomy, as seen in her 2023 study (8 citations), which helps surgeons tailor their approach for optimal results. Additionally, her review of "scarless" thyroidectomy approaches (2021) synthesizes the evolution of remote-access techniques, guiding surgeons in selecting the best method for individual patients. Through her work, Suh has contributed to the growing body of evidence that robotic endocrine surgery can achieve outcomes comparable to open surgery while offering superior cosmetic results, making her a key figure in the field of minimally invasive endocrine surgery.
