About
Ye Xin Koh is a leading surgical researcher specializing in minimally invasive hepatopancreaticobiliary (HPB) surgery, with a particular focus on laparoscopic and robotic techniques for liver, pancreatic, and biliary procedures. His work has significantly advanced the understanding of how surgeons and institutions can safely adopt complex minimally invasive operations, including through his widely cited 2021 systematic review and meta-regression analysis on learning curves in minimally invasive hepatectomy, which has garnered 131 citations and remains a cornerstone reference in the field. Koh has been a pioneering early adopter of minimally invasive pancreato-biliary surgery in Southeast Asia, documenting institutional outcomes and evolving trends that have helped establish reproducibility and safety beyond high-volume Western centers. His comparative studies — including a highly cited 2024 analysis of robotic versus laparoscopic liver resection (76 citations) and a network meta-analysis of cost-effectiveness across surgical approaches (36 citations) — provide clinicians with critical evidence to guide surgical decision-making. Collectively accumulating nearly 400 citations, Koh's body of work reflects a sustained commitment to evidence-based surgical innovation, making him an influential voice in the global adoption of advanced minimally invasive HPB surgery.
