About
Chenhao Yu is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for prostate cancer treatment, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy. His major contributions include pioneering the single-port robot-assisted perineal radical prostatectomy (sp-pRARP) using the da Vinci XI system, where he documented the initial experience and learning curve through cumulative sum analysis—a study that has garnered 13 citations and established foundational protocols for this innovative approach. Yu has also systematically investigated factors influencing surgical difficulty, notably through an original study and meta-analysis examining how bony pelvic and prostate dimensions affect robot-assisted prostatectomy outcomes (6 citations). His research extends to predictive modeling, where he identified perioperative circulating markers as novel predictors of surgical complications (5 citations), offering surgeons accessible tools for risk stratification. Additionally, Yu reported a rare but critical complication—acute respiratory distress syndrome secondary to carbon dioxide gas embolism during single-port perineal prostatectomy—highlighting his commitment to surgical safety. With a growing citation impact and a focus on refining robotic techniques to improve patient outcomes, Yu is establishing himself as a key figure in the evolution of urologic oncology surgery.
