During his devotion to medicine, Dr Minh Hung has conducted many valuable scientific studies and published several original papers on surgical techniques, such as D2 lymphadenectomy in laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer, treatment of oesophageal hiatus hernia by laparoscopic surgery, and thoracoscopic-laparoscopic oesophagectomy in a prone position.
