Marcus Yeow

About

Dr. Marcus Yeow is a leading figure in hepatobiliary and minimally invasive surgery, with a focused expertise in living donor hepatectomy and robotic liver resection. His most impactful work, a 2022 systematic review and network meta-analysis comparing outcomes across five surgical approaches for living donor right hepatectomy—open, mini-laparotomy, hybrid, totally laparoscopic, and robotic—has garnered 34 citations, establishing a critical evidence base for optimizing donor safety and recovery. Dr. Yeow has also made significant contributions to ventral hernia repair, publishing a rigorous meta-analysis of robotic versus laparoscopic techniques that has been cited 19 times. His recent 2024 propensity score-matched analysis, comparing robotic versus laparoscopic minor liver resections of the anterolateral segments, further solidifies his role in advancing robotic surgery, demonstrating its potential for improved outcomes. Additionally, his work on liver transplantation in Singapore addresses the unique challenges faced by low- to mid-volume centers, offering strategic insights for program development. Through these high-impact studies, Dr. Yeow is shaping the future of minimally invasive hepatobiliary surgery and transplantation.
