About

Yu-Hui Chang is a leading researcher in gynecologic oncology and minimally invasive surgery, with a focus on improving surgical outcomes for ovarian cancer and endometriosis. Her work critically evaluates the role of robotics, laparoscopy, and laparotomy in complex procedures, including secondary cytoreduction for recurrent ovarian cancer—a study cited 91 times that has shaped clinical decision-making. Chang’s research also addresses surgeon well-being, notably in a pioneering study on surgeon fatigue and postural stability, which found robotic surgery may reduce physical strain compared to laparoscopy. Her investigations into surgical excision of advanced endometriosis (63 citations) have informed perioperative care, while her work on robotic versus open cystectomy highlights how length-of-stay benefits vary by patient age. More recently, she has explored minimally invasive interval debulking after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer, challenging traditional surgical paradigms. With a career spanning over a decade, Chang’s contributions bridge technical innovation, patient outcomes, and occupational health, making her a key voice in the evolution of gynecologic surgery.
