About

Dr. Yinmo Yang is a leading figure in pancreatic surgery, with a career dedicated to improving outcomes for patients with pancreatic cancer. His primary research areas encompass the surgical management of pancreatic malignancies and the prevention of postoperative complications, most notably pancreatic fistula. Dr. Yang’s major contribution is his leadership in establishing the China Pancreas Data Center (CPDC), a national, multicenter online registry. His landmark paper, "Real-world study of surgical treatment of pancreatic cancer in China: annual report of China Pancreas Data Center (2016–2020)," with 28 citations, provides the most comprehensive, real-world analysis of surgical practices and outcomes across China, serving as a critical resource for standardizing care. This work has profoundly impacted the field by enabling large-scale data-driven improvements. Additionally, his research on pancreatic stump closure during distal pancreatectomy addresses a key technical challenge, seeking to reduce the high incidence of pancreatic fistula. Through these efforts, Dr. Yang has not only advanced surgical technique but also built the infrastructure for evidence-based surgical oncology in China, making him a pivotal figure for students and researchers interested in pancreatic disease.
