About

Yong Ki Jeong is a pioneering colorectal surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly in robotic and single-port approaches for rectal cancer treatment. His most-cited work, "Learning curve for Da Vinci single–port robotic rectal cancer surgery" (2025), has already garnered 4 citations, reflecting the growing interest in his contributions to surgical innovation. Jeong's major contributions lie in systematically analyzing the learning curve associated with single-port robotic systems, providing critical benchmarks for surgeons adopting this technology and improving patient outcomes through reduced trauma and faster recovery. His research addresses the intersection of surgical precision, oncological safety, and technological adaptation, making him a key figure in modern colorectal surgery. By quantifying the challenges and milestones of mastering the Da Vinci single-port platform, Jeong has helped establish standardized training protocols that enhance surgical proficiency. His work is particularly impactful for trainees and early-career surgeons navigating the complexities of robotic surgery, offering evidence-based guidance to shorten learning periods and optimize clinical results. Jeong's dedication to refining surgical techniques underscores his role as a leader in the evolution of minimally invasive oncology.
