About

Dr. Sang Seol Jung is a pioneering endocrine surgeon whose work has significantly advanced the field of minimally invasive thyroid surgery. His research primarily focuses on comparing surgical outcomes between endoscopic and robotic thyroidectomy techniques, with a key emphasis on improving cosmetic results and patient recovery. His most cited study, "Comparison of surgical outcomes between endoscopic and robotic thyroidectomy" (2011, 71 citations), critically evaluates the gasless transaxillary approach, demonstrating its advantage in eliminating visible neck scars while expanding the indications for these procedures. Through this work, Dr. Jung has helped refine surgical instrumentation and techniques, addressing the limitations of two-dimensional visualization in endoscopic surgery. His contributions have directly influenced the adoption of robotic thyroidectomy, offering patients safer, more precise, and scarless alternatives. With a growing citation impact, Dr. Jung’s research continues to shape clinical practice and inspire further innovation in head and neck surgery.
