About
Dr. Siong San Tan is a pioneering robotic surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques in hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) and multivisceral surgery. His major contributions include demonstrating the feasibility and safety of complex robotic multivisceral resections using the da Vinci Xi system, as detailed in his most-cited paper (2022, 7 citations), which provides crucial technical insights for multi-quadrant procedures. He has also explored the utility of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence in robotic liver surgery, enhancing intraoperative visualization. Dr. Tan has been instrumental in developing robotic HPB surgery in Singapore, co-authoring a multi-institutional study (2018, 2 citations) that documents the collective experience and growth of this technology in the region. His work has collectively garnered citations that underscore its growing influence in the field. By pushing the boundaries of what is achievable with robotic platforms, Dr. Tan is helping to establish new standards for precision and safety in complex abdominal surgeries, making him a key figure in the evolution of robotic surgery in Asia.
