About
Dr. Ji Hyeon Park is a pioneering thoracic surgeon whose research is reshaping minimally invasive approaches to complex chest surgeries. Her work centers on robotic-assisted procedures for thymectomy, lung cancer resection, and esophagectomy, with a focus on improving both short-term recovery and long-term oncologic outcomes. In her landmark 2022 study comparing robotic subxiphoid thymectomy to lateral thymectomy, she demonstrated the safety and efficacy of the novel subxiphoid approach, a contribution that has garnered 19 citations and influenced surgical practice for anterior mediastinal tumors. Her large-scale analysis of over 4,200 patients comparing robotic versus video-assisted thoracoscopic anatomical lung resection (6 citations) provides critical evidence supporting the safety and effectiveness of robotic techniques. Most recently, her 2024 investigation into long-term survival after robotic esophagectomy for esophageal cancer identifies key risk factors for mortality, offering vital insights for patient selection and postoperative care. Dr. Park’s work consistently bridges technical innovation with rigorous outcomes analysis, making her a leading voice in the evolution of robotic thoracic surgery.
