About the Lab
Professor Hong-Min Ahn's research lab specializes in gastrointestinal oncology, with a primary focus on colorectal cancer management and surgical oncology. The lab investigates the pathological characteristics and lymph node metastasis patterns in early-stage colon cancer, particularly following endoscopic resection, to guide optimal surgical strategies such as complete mesocolic excision with central vascular ligation. Their work emphasizes improving outcomes through precise staging and personalized treatment planning, integrating clinical, pathological, and survival data. The lab also contributes to evidence-based surgical decision-making using retrospective cohort analyses from prospectively collected databases.
