About

Dr. Yoon Soon Lee is a pioneering gynecologic oncologist whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for the treatment of gynecological malignancies. Her primary research focuses on the comparative effectiveness of robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic surgery, particularly in complex procedures such as transperitoneal infrarenal para-aortic lymphadenectomy. Dr. Lee’s major contribution lies in demonstrating the clinical feasibility and safety of robotic-assisted approaches, showing that they can achieve comparable or superior perioperative outcomes to traditional laparoscopy while potentially reducing complications and improving recovery times. Her landmark study, "Robotic-assisted Transperitoneal Infrarenal Para-aortic Lymphadenectomy for Gynecological Malignancies," has garnered significant attention, accumulating 7 citations and serving as a key reference for surgeons adopting robotic platforms. This work has helped establish evidence-based guidelines for the use of robotics in gynecologic oncology, particularly for staging and treating cancers that require meticulous lymph node dissection. Dr. Lee’s dedication to refining surgical techniques continues to shape the field, offering patients safer, less invasive options and inspiring a new generation of researchers to explore the intersection of technology and cancer care.
