About
Mihye Choi is a pioneering plastic and reconstructive surgeon whose research centers on microsurgery, lymphedema treatment, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. She is best known for her groundbreaking work in developing robotically assisted approaches for vascularized lymph node transfer, a critical procedure for patients suffering from lymphedema. Her most cited paper, “Robotically Assisted Omentum Flap Harvest: A Novel, Minimally Invasive Approach for Vascularized Lymph Node Transfer” (2020, 27 citations), introduces a technique that uses the omentum—an abundant source of lymphatic tissue with reliable vascular anatomy—as an ideal donor site, eliminating the risk of donor site lymphedema. This innovation represents a significant advance in reconstructive surgery, offering patients a safer, less invasive option. Choi’s contributions have reshaped clinical practice, providing a new standard for lymphatic reconstruction. Her work continues to inspire surgeons and researchers, demonstrating how robotic technology can expand the boundaries of microsurgery and improve patient outcomes.
