About
Atsushi Mizokami is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving functional outcomes after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), with a particular focus on urinary continence. His major contributions include pioneering the use of urodynamic evaluations and dynamic MRI to understand the mechanisms behind post-prostatectomy incontinence, demonstrating that nerve-sparing techniques significantly aid continence recovery, and elucidating why the Retzius-sparing approach yields superior early continence. His highly cited 2015 paper (87 citations) on preoperative predictors of continence is a cornerstone in the field. Beyond continence, he has investigated the cardiovascular effects of surgical positioning, treatment satisfaction, and even developed a novel procedure to prevent inguinal hernia after RARP. With over a dozen papers on RARP outcomes, his work has been cited more than 250 times, providing critical evidence that directly shapes surgical practice and enhances patient quality of life.
