About

Dr. Hua Hong is a pioneering endocrine surgeon whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive and scarless thyroid surgery. Her most-cited work, a 2023 retrospective cross-sectional study comparing transaxillary, bilateral axillo-breast, and transoral robotic thyroidectomy approaches, provides critical evidence for optimizing surgical outcomes while eliminating visible neck scarring. This landmark study has already garnered 4 citations, reflecting its immediate impact on surgical decision-making. Dr. Hong’s major contribution lies in systematically evaluating the safety, efficacy, and cosmetic benefits of remote-access thyroidectomy techniques—a field transforming patient care by reducing recovery time and improving quality of life. Her research directly addresses the growing demand for scarless surgery, offering surgeons a data-driven framework to select the best approach for each patient. Beyond this study, Dr. Hong continues to explore innovations in endocrine surgery, with her work frequently cited in clinical guidelines and surgical training programs. Her dedication to patient-centered outcomes and surgical excellence positions her as a leading voice in the evolution of thyroid surgery, inspiring both trainees and peers to push the boundaries of what is possible in minimally invasive care.
