About
Dr. Ji Yeon Park is a pioneering surgeon whose research has fundamentally advanced the field of minimally invasive gastric cancer surgery. Her work centers on evaluating and validating the role of robotic-assisted gastrectomy, particularly for early gastric cancer, comparing its outcomes against the established laparoscopic approach. Dr. Park’s major contributions include demonstrating that robot-assisted total gastrectomy is comparable to laparoscopic surgery for early-stage disease, a finding supported by her most-cited paper (125 citations). She has also provided critical insights into the surgical stress response and economic implications of robotic procedures (110 citations), and has shown the technique's superiority in complex tasks like suprapancreatic nodal dissection (73 citations). Her comprehensive analysis of 200 consecutive robotic gastrectomy cases (37 citations) helped establish its safety and feasibility. Notably, Dr. Park has investigated the specific benefits of robotics for viscerally obese patients and assessed health-related quality of life post-surgery, ensuring that surgical innovation is paired with patient-centered outcomes. Through this impactful body of work, Dr. Park has been instrumental in defining the emerging role of robotic surgery in gastric cancer treatment.
