About
Dr. Jung Hwan Park is a pioneering surgeon whose work has fundamentally reshaped thyroid surgery through the development and validation of transoral techniques. His primary research areas focus on minimally invasive thyroidectomy, specifically comparing robotic and endoscopic approaches to eliminate visible neck scars. Park’s landmark studies, including his analysis of the first 100 transoral cases (70 citations) and early comparative outcomes (62 citations), established the safety and efficacy of these scarless procedures. He has made critical contributions by systematically evaluating surgical completeness, demonstrating comparable oncologic outcomes to conventional surgery in a five-year propensity-matched study (15 citations), and pioneering transoral robotic selective neck dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma (7 citations). Notably, his prospective investigation of mental nerve injury (31 citations) provided essential insights into postoperative sensory changes, helping refine techniques to minimize complications. With over 180 cumulative citations, Park’s work has been instrumental in advancing scarless thyroid surgery, offering patients superior cosmetic results without compromising safety or oncologic integrity. His research continues to set new standards in endocrine surgery.
