About
Dr. Shuai Shen is a leading surgical oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for gastric cancer treatment, particularly through robotic and laparoscopic gastrectomy. His major contributions lie in rigorous comparative effectiveness studies that evaluate short- and long-term outcomes between these two surgical approaches. Using propensity score matching to minimize selection bias, Dr. Shen has demonstrated that robotic gastrectomy offers comparable or superior short-term clinical results to laparoscopic gastrectomy, with similar long-term survival outcomes—findings that have guided surgical decision-making worldwide. His work has been highly influential, with his most cited paper (43 citations) providing critical evidence from a single surgical team, while another key study (29 citations) further validated these results. Most recently, Dr. Shen has pioneered the integration of preoperative perigastric artery CTA into surgical planning, showing how this imaging technique can enhance decision-making and improve outcomes in high-volume centers. His research has been instrumental in establishing evidence-based protocols for choosing between robotic and laparoscopic approaches, directly impacting clinical practice and patient care in gastric cancer surgery.
