About

Yupei Zhao is a pioneering figure in pancreatic surgery, with a focus on advancing robotic and minimally invasive techniques to improve patient outcomes. His major contributions include leading the development of international consensus guidelines for robotic pancreatic surgery, which provide evidence-based standards for safety and efficacy in this rapidly evolving field. Zhao also spearheaded the China Pancreas Data Center’s national study on pancreatic cancer surgery, analyzing over 5,000 cases from 2016–2020 to establish real-world benchmarks for treatment in China. His work on the learning curve for robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy, based on 301 cases, has helped define optimal training protocols for surgeons. Additionally, he has contributed to pediatric surgery with a case report on robotic enucleation for insulinoma in a child with MEN1 syndrome, showcasing the versatility of robotic approaches. With over 100 citations across his most-cited papers, Zhao’s research has had a significant impact, shaping clinical practice and fostering global collaboration. His leadership in authoring Chinese expert consensus on minimally invasive radical surgery for pancreatic cancer further underscores his role as a key opinion leader in the field, driving innovation and standardization in pancreatic surgical care.
