About
Jun Ho Lee is a surgical researcher specializing in minimally invasive and robotic approaches to thyroid surgery, with a particular focus on papillary thyroid carcinoma. His work sits at the intersection of oncologic precision and surgical innovation, consistently evaluating whether cutting-edge techniques can match or surpass conventional methods without compromising patient outcomes. Lee's most influential contribution, a 2016 propensity score-matched analysis comparing robotic and endoscopic bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) thyroidectomy, has accumulated 31 citations and helped establish a rigorous comparative framework for assessing remote-access thyroid procedures. Building on this foundation, his 2023 study examining transoral endoscopic (TOETVA) versus transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) across 240 consecutive patients provided one of the most comprehensive head-to-head analyses of these cosmetically advantageous, scar-free approaches. His 2025 work expanded this comparison further, incorporating conventional open thyroidectomy into a propensity score-matched three-way analysis. Beyond thyroid surgery, Lee has also contributed to gastrointestinal oncology, investigating intraoperative radiograph utility during laparoscopic and robotic gastrectomy. Across his portfolio, Lee demonstrates a commitment to evidence-based surgical refinement, helping guide surgeons and patients toward better-informed operative decisions.
