About
Dr. Juinn Huar Kam is a pioneering hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeon whose work has been instrumental in advancing minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in Southeast Asia. His research centers on the safe adoption and evolution of laparoscopic and robotic techniques for complex procedures, including hepatectomies, pancreatoduodenectomies, and distal pancreatectomies. Dr. Kam’s major contributions include demonstrating the reproducibility of minimally invasive major hepatectomies outside expert centers, as evidenced by his landmark study on 400 consecutive resections (84 citations). He has also provided critical comparative insights through network meta-analyses of robotic, laparoscopic, and open pancreatoduodenectomies (46 citations), helping to clarify the safety and efficacy of these approaches. His work on the early learning phase of MIS for periampullary tumors (29 citations) and the evolution of distal pancreatectomies (24 citations) has guided surgical training and patient selection. With over 250 cumulative citations, Dr. Kam’s research has shaped global best practices, proving that high-quality, minimally invasive pancreatic and liver surgery can be successfully implemented in diverse healthcare settings.
