About

Dr. Sun‐Yran Chang is a urological surgeon whose work has advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly in the context of prostate cancer care. His research centers on laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgery, with a focus on improving surgical accessibility and cost-effectiveness. Dr. Chang’s most cited work, “Cost-effective homemade specimen retrieval bag for use in laparoscopic surgery” (2012, 18 citations), demonstrates his commitment to practical innovation, offering a low-cost solution that broadens the availability of essential surgical tools. His landmark study, “Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy: initial experience of robotic surgery in Taiwan” (2008, 12 citations), documents the pioneering introduction of robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) in Taiwan. This work provided critical early evidence on the feasibility and safety of robotic surgery in a region with lower prostate cancer incidence, helping to establish a foundation for advanced urological care in East Asia. Through these contributions, Dr. Chang has not only enhanced surgical technique but also addressed systemic barriers to care, making him a notable figure in the global adoption of minimally invasive urological surgery.
