About

Dr. Zuliang Feng is a pioneering robotic surgeon whose work has significantly advanced minimally invasive endocrine and urologic procedures. His primary research focuses on optimizing robotic adrenalectomy techniques, where he has made landmark contributions. Dr. Feng is best known for introducing a cost-conscious approach to robotic adrenalectomy (38 citations) and for his comparative analysis of the da Vinci Xi versus Si platforms (28 citations), which provided crucial data for surgical decision-making. He has also refined the posterior retroperitoneoscopic approach, offering useful modifications for challenging patient populations, including those with severe obesity. Beyond adrenal surgery, Dr. Feng has contributed to bariatric and urologic robotics, notably addressing the prevention of extraction site hernias after robotic prostatectomy (11 citations) and documenting rare cases such as robotic gastric bypass in situs inversus. His work on perioperative care for robotic bariatric surgery further underscores his holistic approach to surgical innovation. With a career marked by technical ingenuity and a focus on patient safety, Dr. Feng’s research has been cited over 100 times, establishing him as a key figure in the evolution of robotic-assisted surgery.
