About

Peter Ng is a pioneering figure in minimally invasive endocrine surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted adrenal surgery and the management of adrenal incidentalomas. His seminal 2002 work, "Robotic-Assisted Adrenalectomy for Adrenal Incidentaloma: Case and Review of the Technique," which has garnered 68 citations, established foundational techniques for robotic adrenalectomy in asymptomatic patients. This landmark paper demonstrated the safety and feasibility of robotic approaches for non-functioning adrenal masses, helping to shift surgical paradigms toward less invasive interventions. Ng’s contributions have been instrumental in refining preoperative biochemical screening protocols and surgical decision-making for adrenal incidentalomas, directly influencing clinical guidelines. His research bridges the gap between emerging robotic technology and practical endocrine surgery, providing a reproducible framework that has been adopted by surgical teams worldwide. Through his meticulous case reports and technical reviews, Ng has advanced the field by proving that robotic-assisted adrenalectomy can achieve outcomes comparable to traditional laparoscopy while offering enhanced dexterity and visualization. His work remains a cornerstone reference for surgeons and trainees navigating the evolving landscape of adrenal surgery.
