About
Dr. Long Cen is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work is reshaping the surgical management of congenital biliary anomalies, particularly congenital choledochal cysts (CCC). His landmark 2025 multicenter study, which has already garnered significant attention, represents the first comprehensive network meta-analysis comparing open, laparoscopic, and robotic-assisted surgical approaches for pediatric CCC. By synthesizing data from 28 cohort studies and validating findings through a large retrospective cohort, Dr. Cen provided crucial evidence that robotic-assisted surgery offers superior outcomes in terms of reduced complications and faster recovery for young patients. This work has directly influenced clinical guidelines and surgical decision-making worldwide. With over 1,000 citations across his portfolio, Dr. Cen’s research is characterized by rigorous methodology and a commitment to improving surgical safety and efficacy in children. His contributions have established him as a leading voice in pediatric minimally invasive surgery, and his ongoing work continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the treatment of complex congenital conditions.
