About
Dr. Kyeong A So is a gynecologic oncologist and surgeon whose research centers on improving surgical outcomes for women with gynecologic cancers and complex adnexal conditions. Her most impactful work includes a landmark meta-analysis comparing minimally invasive surgery versus open surgery for high-risk histologic endometrial cancer patients, which has garnered 28 citations and provides critical evidence for surgical decision-making in this challenging population. Dr. So has also contributed significantly to the understanding of adnexal masses in pediatric and adolescent patients, with her 2022 study evaluating incidence, clinical diagnosis, surgical treatment, and histopathological findings in patients under 20 years old—a critical area where data remains sparse. Most recently, she has pioneered the use of the da Vinci SP robotic system for surgical staging in early endometrial cancer without an intra-uterine manipulator, a technical innovation that may reduce tumor dissemination risk. With a growing citation record and a focus on both high-risk adult populations and vulnerable younger patients, Dr. So’s work bridges surgical innovation and evidence-based practice, making her a rising voice in gynecologic oncology.
