Good At

He has superb surgical skills, and is especially good at minimally invasive endoscopic surgery (transoral and transthoracic) and complex open surgery for thyroid diseases. Thousands of thyroid surgeries of various types have been completed. In minimally invasive surgery, the superior perspective of endoscopy is used to make lymph node dissection in the central area of thyroid cancer more thorough. The magnifying effect of high-definition endoscopy is used to better identify and protect the recurrent laryngeal nerve, superior laryngeal nerve and thyroid during surgery. Fine structures such as parathyroid gland reduce the incidence of complications, make the surgery clearer and more precise, and achieve both physiological and psychological minimally invasive effects. More than 200 cases of various types of endoscopic minimally invasive thyroid surgeries are completed every year. The proportion of minimally invasive surgery and the total number of surgeries rank among the leading levels in China, making endoscopic thyroid surgery a professional advantage and feature of Xinhua General Surgery's thyroid department; in open surgery, he is good at protecting relevant functions of patients with complex adhesions after reoperation, and lymph node dissection in the lateral cervical area of patients with thyroid cancer lymph node metastasis.
