About
Gang Geun Lee is a clinician-researcher whose work focuses on the safety and complications of minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a particular emphasis on the cardiovascular risks associated with vasopressin use during myomectomy. His most cited paper, a 2018 case report published in *Obstetrics & Gynecology Science*, documents a rare but life-threatening cardiac arrest following intramyometrial injection of vasopressin during a robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy. This work has garnered 16 citations and serves as a critical alert to surgeons about the potential for systemic vasopressin absorption to induce severe bradycardia, myocardial infarction, and cardiac arrest—even when administered locally to reduce bleeding. By highlighting this adverse effect, Lee’s contribution has directly informed safer surgical protocols and heightened awareness of vasopressin’s dose-dependent risks. His research bridges the gap between routine surgical practice and anesthesiology, underscoring the need for vigilant monitoring during gynecologic procedures. Lee’s work is essential reading for surgeons and anesthesiologists alike, offering a stark reminder that even well-established hemostatic techniques carry hidden dangers.
