About

Yuanqing Yao is a leading figure in gynecologic oncology, whose research has fundamentally advanced the surgical treatment of cervical, endometrial, and ovarian cancers. Yao’s work is centered on evaluating the safety, efficacy, and long-term outcomes of minimally invasive approaches, with a particular focus on robotic surgery using the da Vinci system. A major contribution is the landmark systematic review and meta-analysis on robotic surgery for cervical cancer (22 citations), which demonstrated its superiority over traditional open and laparoscopic methods. This was complemented by a comprehensive network meta-analysis (13 citations) comparing five different radical hysterectomy techniques, providing crucial evidence for surgical decision-making. Yao has also pioneered the application of robotic nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy for locally advanced cervical cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and investigated its benefits for obese patients with endometrial cancer. With over 50 citations across these key works, Yao’s research has shaped modern surgical protocols, offering patients less invasive options with improved recovery and outcomes.
