About
Dr. Sang Hoon Jang is a distinguished neurosurgeon and researcher whose work centers on minimally invasive spinal surgery, particularly for complex thoracic pathologies. His major contributions lie in advancing surgical techniques that reduce patient trauma and improve recovery outcomes. Notably, his 2012 technical note on the oblique paraspinal approach for thoracic disc herniations—utilizing a tubular retractor with a robotic holder—has garnered 38 citations, reflecting its influence in refining operative precision and safety. This work exemplifies his commitment to integrating robotics into spinal procedures, a field where he continues to innovate. Dr. Jang’s research has shaped how surgeons approach challenging thoracic disc herniations, offering a less invasive alternative to traditional open surgery. His achievements include pioneering the use of robotic-assisted tubular retractors, which enhance visualization and minimize tissue disruption. For students and researchers, Dr. Jang’s work underscores the transformative potential of combining anatomical insight with technological advances, setting a benchmark for future developments in minimally invasive spine surgery.
