Long-Hai Cui

About

Dr. Long-Hai Cui is a leading surgical oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for gastric cancer treatment. His work centers on robotic and laparoscopic gastrectomy, with a particular emphasis on improving surgical precision and patient outcomes through innovative methods. Dr. Cui’s most impactful contributions include pioneering the use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence for real-time vessel navigation during gastrectomy, a technique that significantly enhances the identification of critical structures like the infrapyloric artery, especially in pylorus-preserving procedures (52 citations). He also developed the modified overlap method using knotless barbed sutures (MOBS) for intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy, streamlining a complex anastomotic step (37 citations). Demonstrating the evolution of surgical practice, his 7-year propensity score analysis provided compelling evidence that robotic gastrectomy can surpass laparoscopic gastrectomy in outcomes as surgeons gain long-term experience (24 citations). Through these landmark studies, Dr. Cui has not only advanced surgical safety and efficacy but also shaped the trajectory of modern gastric cancer surgery, making him a pivotal figure in the field.
