About
Dr. Seohee Choi is a leading gastric cancer surgeon whose pioneering work has redefined minimally invasive surgical approaches, particularly through the integration of robotic and fluorescence-guided technologies. Her research focuses on optimizing gastrectomy techniques—comparing open, laparoscopic, and robotic methods—with a special emphasis on reducing surgical invasiveness while maintaining oncologic rigor. Dr. Choi’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety and efficacy of reduced-port and integrated robotic gastrectomy, as well as establishing the superiority of robotic-assisted surgery for complex procedures like completion total gastrectomy and splenic hilar lymph node dissection. Her landmark study on leakage outcomes, drawn from an immense cohort of 14,075 patients, provides critical benchmarks for surgical quality. With multiple papers accumulating 30–40+ citations each, her work has directly shaped clinical practice in high-volume centers. Notably, her comparative trials on the da Vinci Xi® and Si® systems and her nonrandomized controlled trial on fluorescence-guided two-port robotic gastrectomy highlight her role in advancing surgical precision. Dr. Choi’s cumulative experience with over 2,000 robotic gastrectomies underscores her as a transformative figure in gastric cancer surgery, offering safer, less invasive options for patients worldwide.
