About
Jae Hwan Kim is a pioneering surgeon whose work has advanced the field of robotic thyroid surgery, particularly through the adoption of the bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA). His most-cited paper, "Initial Experience of BABA Robotic Thyroidectomy Using the Da Vinci Xi System in Incheon, Korea" (2019), documents the early implementation of this minimally invasive technique in a Korean clinical setting. With 8 citations, this study has provided foundational insights into the feasibility, safety, and cosmetic advantages of robotic thyroidectomy, helping to refine surgical protocols and expand patient access to scarless neck surgery. Kim’s contributions are especially notable for demonstrating how the Da Vinci Xi system can enhance precision in delicate endocrine procedures, reducing recovery time and postoperative complications. His work sits at the intersection of surgical innovation and patient-centered care, offering a template for other institutions adopting robotic platforms. As a researcher based in Incheon, Kim has helped position Korea as a leader in robotic endocrine surgery, and his ongoing efforts continue to shape best practices in thyroid cancer management.
