About

Dr. Jae Young Jang is a leading hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgery through rigorous comparative effectiveness studies. His major contributions lie in systematically evaluating robotic versus laparoscopic approaches for complex liver and pancreatic procedures. Through landmark international multicenter studies, Dr. Jang has demonstrated that robotic techniques can offer distinct advantages in major hepatectomies, including right and extended right hepatectomies, with his most cited work (120 citations) providing propensity score-matched evidence for robotic superiority. His research portfolio, encompassing over 350 citations, has critically examined outcomes across the spectrum of minimally invasive surgery—from minor resections to pancreaticoduodenectomies—while also identifying risk factors for open conversion and the impact of cirrhosis on surgical difficulty. Dr. Jang’s work is particularly notable for its methodological rigor, employing large-scale multicenter databases and advanced statistical matching to control for selection bias. His studies have helped establish evidence-based guidelines for surgical approach selection, making him a pivotal figure in the ongoing evolution of robotic hepatobiliary surgery.
