About
Jeesun Kim is a leading researcher in gastric cancer surgery, with a focus on optimizing surgical techniques and postoperative recovery to improve patient outcomes. Her work spans three key areas: nationwide epidemiological surveillance, enhanced recovery protocols, and function-preserving gastrectomy. Kim’s most impactful contribution is leading the Korean Gastric Cancer Association’s 2023 nationwide survey on surgically treated gastric cancers (22 citations), providing critical real-world data that shapes treatment standards across Korea. She also demonstrated the effectiveness of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program through a randomized clinical trial (7 citations), showing measurable improvements in postoperative recovery. Notably, Kim has advanced the field of function-preserving gastrectomy (6 citations), advocating for procedures like pylorus-preserving gastrectomy that maintain quality of life without compromising oncologic outcomes. Her comparative analysis of robotic versus laparoscopic gastrectomy (3 citations) using propensity score matching in a high-volume center further establishes her expertise in minimally invasive techniques. With a career dedicated to evidence-based surgical innovation, Kim’s work directly influences how gastric cancer patients are treated, from large-scale practice patterns to individualized recovery pathways.
