About

Dr. Ju Yeon Lee is a pioneering hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) surgeon whose work is redefining the boundaries of minimally invasive surgery. Her research focuses on advancing robotic and single-site surgical platforms to tackle the most complex procedures in the abdomen. Dr. Lee’s major contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility and safety of the robotic single-site plus one port platform for intricate HBP operations—a technique that traditionally posed significant challenges due to limited instrument maneuverability. Her landmark 2023 study, which has garnered 8 citations, provides critical early evidence that this innovative approach can overcome the constraints of conventional single-site laparoscopy, offering patients less invasive options without compromising surgical outcomes. By systematically evaluating this platform for complex cases, Dr. Lee is helping to set new standards in the field, bridging the gap between technical difficulty and clinical applicability. Her work is particularly notable for its potential to expand the indications for robotic surgery, making it a vital resource for surgeons and researchers striving to enhance recovery and reduce trauma in HBP patients.
