About
Sukjoong Oh is a leading voice in the evolution of minimally invasive head and neck surgery, with a particular focus on robotic and endoscopic techniques for thyroid and oropharyngeal cancers. His work directly addresses the critical balance between oncologic efficacy and functional preservation. In a landmark 2024 network meta-analysis, Oh systematically compared transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) and transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy (TOETVA) against conventional transcervical thyroidectomy, synthesizing data from 23 studies to clarify surgical outcomes and guide clinical decision-making. This highly cited work (24 citations) has become a key reference for surgeons navigating the transition to scarless, transoral approaches. Further demonstrating his commitment to quality of life, Oh’s research on long-term functional outcomes after transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for oropharyngeal cancer provides crucial data on speech and swallowing recovery, areas often overlooked in short-term studies. By rigorously evaluating both the technical success and the lasting impact on patients, Sukjoong Oh is helping to define best practices for the next generation of head and neck surgery.
