About

Jing Xu is a surgical researcher specializing in minimally invasive and robotic thyroid surgery, with a particular focus on innovative operative approaches and perioperative care optimization. Their work addresses a critical challenge in thyroid surgery: minimizing visible scarring while maintaining surgical precision and safety, especially in vulnerable patient populations. Xu's most impactful contribution examines the robotic Bilateral Axillo-Breast Approach (BABA) as an alternative to conventional open thyroidectomy in pediatric patients — a group for whom long-term cosmetic outcomes carry significant quality-of-life implications. This retrospective cohort study, accumulating 12 citations since 2022, demonstrates Xu's commitment to advancing patient-centered surgical care in younger populations where traditional approaches may leave lasting physical and psychological impacts. Building on this foundation, Xu has also explored the integration of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols with transoral robotic thyroidectomy, a rapidly growing technique that eliminates external incisions entirely. This 2023 work reflects a broader vision of combining cutting-edge surgical technology with evidence-based perioperative management to improve patient outcomes. Together, Xu's research positions them as an emerging voice in the evolving landscape of scarless and minimally invasive endocrine surgery.
