About
Dr. Yueying Yang is a pioneering thoracic surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for lung cancer surgery, with a particular focus on comparing robotic-assisted and video-assisted thoracoscopic approaches. Her most-cited study, "Comparison of perioperative outcomes between hybrid uniportal robotic-assisted and uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery," published in 2025, has already garnered 6 citations—a strong early indicator of its impact. In this landmark work, Dr. Yang evaluated the safety and feasibility of hybrid multi-arm robotic-assisted uniportal thoracoscopic surgery (H-URATS) using a laparoscopic stapling device, employing propensity score matching to rigorously compare outcomes against traditional uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Her findings provide critical evidence that robotic-assisted techniques can match or improve upon VATS outcomes, potentially expanding surgical options for patients. Dr. Yang’s contributions are shaping the future of thoracic oncology by refining surgical protocols and reducing invasiveness. Her research is essential reading for surgeons and trainees seeking to understand the evolving landscape of minimally invasive thoracic procedures, where her work bridges the gap between innovation and clinical application.
