About

Yeon Jee Lee is a gynecologic surgeon and clinical researcher whose work focuses on minimally invasive robotic surgical techniques, particularly robot-assisted hysterectomy. Lee's research sits at the intersection of surgical education and clinical outcomes, with a primary emphasis on understanding how surgeons develop proficiency in advanced robotic platforms. Her most cited work examines the learning curves associated with both multiport and single-site robot-assisted hysterectomy, providing valuable benchmarks for surgical training programs and institutions adopting these technologies. The 2022 study on multiport robotic hysterectomy has garnered 15 citations, while her parallel investigation into single-site robotic approaches, which enrolled 123 patients in a retrospective cohort at a single academic medical center, has accumulated 5 citations. Together, these contributions offer the surgical community concrete data on how procedural competency evolves over time, informing credentialing standards and curriculum design. Lee's research is particularly significant for gynecologic surgeons transitioning to newer robotic systems, as her findings help define realistic milestones and set expectations for the adoption of increasingly sophisticated minimally invasive technologies in clinical practice.
