About

Dr. Yoon Hee Lee is a pioneering gynecologic surgeon whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for the treatment of cervical cancer, adenomyosis, and other gynecologic malignancies. Her most impactful work, "Robot Versus Laparoscopic Nerve-Sparing Radical Hysterectomy for Cervical Cancer" (56 citations), established her as a leader in comparing robotic and laparoscopic approaches, demonstrating a commitment to optimizing nerve preservation and patient outcomes. Dr. Lee has made significant contributions to the anatomical understanding of the presacral area, with her study on internal iliac vein variations (19 citations) providing critical guidance for safe lymphadenectomy and sacral colpopexy. Her body of work, which includes over 170 total citations, systematically evaluates the long-term efficacy of adenomyomectomy (21 citations) and the oncological safety of robotic surgery during the learning curve (16 citations). Notably, she has also explored the frontiers of single-site robotic myomectomy using the da Vinci SP system (10 citations), showcasing her dedication to refining surgical techniques for reduced morbidity. Through these contributions, Dr. Lee has helped define the modern standard of care for minimally invasive gynecologic oncology surgery.
