About
Dr. Sang-Jae Park is a pioneering hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeon whose work has fundamentally shaped the practice of minimally invasive liver surgery in Asia. His primary research focuses on the safety, efficacy, and oncologic outcomes of laparoscopic major liver resections, particularly for hepatocellular carcinoma. Dr. Park’s most significant contribution is his leadership in the landmark multicenter study detailing the Korean experience with laparoscopic major liver resection, which analyzed over 1,000 cases across a decade. This work, cited over 69 times, established critical benchmarks for surgical technique and patient selection, demonstrating that complex procedures like right hepatectomy could be performed safely with minimally invasive approaches. Beyond this, his research has advanced the understanding of surgical outcomes for hilar cholangiocarcinoma and living donor hepatectomy. A key figure in the Korean Laparoscopic Liver Surgery Study Group, Dr. Park’s collaborative efforts have helped standardize techniques and train a generation of surgeons, solidifying Korea’s reputation as a global leader in advanced hepatobiliary surgery.
