About
Dr. Su Hyun Nam is a pioneering gynecologic surgeon whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive approaches to uterine surgery, particularly myomectomy. Her major contributions center on the development and evaluation of reduced-port robotic surgery, a technique that minimizes incisions and improves patient recovery compared to traditional multiport robot-assisted laparoscopy. In her landmark 2017 studies, Dr. Nam demonstrated the feasibility and safety of using the da Vinci Surgical System for reduced-port myomectomy, showing comparable outcomes to multiport approaches with fewer scars. These works, cited over 20 times collectively, have helped establish a foundation for scarless gynecologic surgery. Her research is notable for directly comparing surgical techniques, providing evidence that reduced-port robotic myomectomy is not only achievable but also offers distinct advantages in patient satisfaction and cosmetic results. Dr. Nam’s innovations are particularly impactful for women seeking fertility-preserving fibroid treatment, and her work continues to influence surgical protocols and training in robotic gynecology.
