About
Yafeng Fan is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical oncology, particularly in prostate cancer management and the clinical translation of robotic-assisted technologies. His most cited study, “Evaluating Incidence, Location, and Predictors of Positive Surgical Margin Among Chinese Men Undergoing Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy” (2021, 8 citations), provides critical insights into surgical quality by analyzing positive surgical margins (PSM) in a cohort of 393 Chinese patients. This work identifies key preoperative predictors and anatomical patterns of PSM, directly informing surgical planning and patient counseling in an underrepresented population. More recently, Fan has contributed to the evaluation of emerging platforms, as seen in his 2025 multicenter study on the AGIBOT® robotic system (1 citation), which assesses its feasibility and safety in urological procedures. This work positions him at the forefront of robotic surgery innovation, helping to validate next-generation systems for broader clinical adoption. Through these contributions, Fan bridges the gap between evidence-based surgical outcomes and technological advancement, offering practical guidance for improving oncologic precision in prostate surgery while supporting the safe integration of novel robotic tools.
