About
Dr. Kezhen Zong is a pioneering hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive robotic techniques for complex oncologic resections. His major contributions lie in developing and demonstrating high-precision robotic procedures for traditionally challenging tumors, including hilar cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic head lesions. Notably, his 2024 publication on robotic right hepatectomy with en bloc caudatectomy for Bismuth IIIa hilar cholangiocarcinoma introduces a novel left-liver-first anterior modular orthotopic approach, a video demonstration that has already garnered 5 citations for its technical innovation. Complementing this, his work on video-based indocyanine green fluorescence in robotic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (4 citations) showcases his expertise in integrating real-time imaging to enhance surgical safety and anatomical precision. Dr. Zong’s research directly addresses the steep learning curve in robotic hepatobiliary surgery, offering reproducible, step-by-step methodologies that reduce operative morbidity. His achievements reflect a commitment to pushing the boundaries of surgical oncology, making him a key figure in the global shift toward robotic-assisted, parenchyma-sparing resections.
