About
Dr. Na An is a leading surgical oncologist whose research focuses on advancing breast cancer surgery, particularly through minimally invasive and reconstructive techniques. Her major contributions center on optimizing nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) outcomes, with a landmark 2025 network meta-analysis comparing robotic, conventional, and endoscopic NSM with immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction. This study, already garnering 3 citations, systematically evaluated the relative efficacy of these approaches, providing crucial evidence for surgical decision-making. Dr. An’s work addresses the critical balance between oncologic safety, cosmetic outcomes, and patient recovery, helping to establish best practices for robotic-assisted breast surgery. Her research has significant implications for improving quality of life in breast cancer patients, demonstrating her commitment to advancing surgical precision and patient-centered care. Through her comparative effectiveness studies, Dr. An continues to shape the future of breast reconstruction surgery.
