About

Dr. Shohei Ishida is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving functional outcomes after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP), particularly in the areas of overactive bladder (OAB) and urinary incontinence. His most cited study, a 2018 prospective analysis of 245 patients, was the first to systematically characterize *de novo* OAB following RARP, identifying key risk factors and establishing a foundation for postoperative management strategies. In a subsequent 2020 study involving 315 patients, Dr. Ishida demonstrated that daily urine loss immediately after catheter removal is a powerful, easily obtainable predictor of long-term urinary incontinence—a finding that enables early identification of at-risk patients and timely intervention. With his work accumulating over 40 citations, Dr. Ishida’s contributions are directly shaping clinical protocols for post-prostatectomy care. His research is notable for its practical, patient-centered approach, translating complex surgical outcomes into actionable metrics that improve quality of life for prostate cancer survivors.
