Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has transformed surgical oncology practice over the past four decades. This narrative reflects on Korea's pioneering role in MIS, particularly in colorectal surgery, chronicling its evolution from early laparoscopic cholecystectomy to advanced robotic procedures. Through personal experience, institutional milestones, and landmark clinical trials-including the COREAN trial-this Presidential Lecture at KSERS 2025 reviews the challenges, milestones, and future direction of MIS. It underscores the need for evidence-based surgical innovation and sustained commitment to clinical trials.
在过去的四十年里,微创手术(MIS)改变了外科肿瘤学的实践。本文回顾了韩国在微创手术,尤其是结直肠手术方面的先驱作用,记录了其从早期腹腔镜胆囊切除术到先进机器人手术的发展历程。通过个人经历、机构里程碑以及包括COREAN试验在内的标志性临床试验,在KSERS 2025的本次主席演讲回顾了微创手术的挑战、里程碑以及未来方向。它强调了基于证据的外科创新和对临床试验持续投入的必要性。
