About
Jisun Kim is a pioneering breast reconstructive surgeon whose research has helped define the emerging field of robot-assisted breast surgery. Her work centers on nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM), immediate breast reconstruction, and the clinical application of advanced robotic platforms, including the da Vinci Xi and single-port SP systems. Kim's most influential contribution, her 2020 study on robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (RANSM), has garnered 68 citations and was among the earliest rigorous evaluations of the procedure's feasibility and safety, helping to establish a foundation for the field. Subsequent work has expanded on surgical technique, including the innovative prepectoral anterior tenting method for robot-assisted reconstruction and tumescent-free approaches designed to reduce the risk of skin and nipple-areolar complex necrosis. Notably, Kim conducted what is believed to be the first comparative study incorporating patient-reported outcome measures between conventional and robot-assisted reconstruction, underscoring her commitment to patient-centered research. Across her body of work, accumulating over 125 citations, she has consistently advanced minimally invasive breast surgery, improving both oncologic precision and cosmetic outcomes for breast cancer patients.
