About
Sang Hyun Kwak is a leading figure in the field of robotic head and neck surgery, with a primary focus on advancing transoral robotic surgery (TORS). His major contributions center on the comparative evaluation and clinical implementation of successive generations of the da Vinci surgical system. Kwak’s most cited work, a 2016 study on the da Vinci Xi system, provides a critical analysis of its settings, advantages, and drawbacks compared to the widely used Si system. This research has been cited 26 times, serving as an essential workflow guide for surgeons transitioning to the newer platform. By systematically investigating the surgical feasibility of the Xi system, Kwak has helped define best practices for TORS, enhancing both safety and precision in minimally invasive head and neck procedures. His work is particularly notable for its practical, translational impact—bridging the gap between technological innovation and clinical application. Kwak’s contributions have established him as a key voice in the ongoing evolution of robotic surgery, offering invaluable insights for researchers and clinicians seeking to optimize surgical outcomes through advanced robotic platforms.
