About
Jie Xiang is a thoracic surgeon and clinical researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, with particular focus on lung cancer resection and esophageal surgery. Drawing on extensive operative experience, Xiang has made pioneering contributions to understanding the technical and clinical dimensions of robotic anatomical segmentectomy, robotic sleeve resection, and robot-assisted esophagectomy. His 2020 multi-institutional propensity score-matched analysis comparing robotic and thoracoscopic segmentectomy for early-stage lung cancer has garnered 90 citations, establishing him as a leading voice in this evolving surgical landscape. His 2018 examination of the learning curve for robotic anatomical segmentectomy (68 citations) has proven especially valuable for surgeons adopting these complex techniques. Xiang has further contributed to the evidence base through a landmark randomized controlled trial comparing robotic and video-assisted lobectomy in non-small-cell lung cancer, as well as detailed studies on robot-assisted Ivor Lewis esophagectomy. His cumulative body of work, spanning technical reports, cohort studies, and prospective trials, has helped define best practices and benchmarks for robotic thoracic surgery programs worldwide.
