About
Dr. Junying Chen is a leading figure in thoracic surgical oncology, with a primary focus on advancing minimally invasive techniques for esophageal cancer. Her most impactful work directly addresses a critical clinical question: whether robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) offers tangible benefits over the established thoraco-laparoscopic approach (TLMIE). In her highly cited 2019 study, which has garnered 51 citations, Dr. Chen provided a rigorous, head-to-head comparison of short-term outcomes for patients with resectable thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. By meticulously analyzing clinicopathological data and surgical results following extended two-field lymph node dissection, her research offered crucial evidence on the safety and efficacy of the robotic platform. This contribution has helped guide surgical decision-making and set a benchmark for future comparative studies. Dr. Chen’s work is instrumental in defining the evolving role of robotics in complex oncologic resections, making her a key voice for surgeons seeking to optimize patient recovery without compromising oncologic principles.
