About
Dr. Hisashi Hasumi is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for complex renal tumors. His major contributions include defining surgical and functional outcomes for the most challenging cases, such as complete endophytic renal tumors (CERTs) and hilar tumors, where his 2024 study demonstrated that CERTs significantly impact perioperative complexity. Dr. Hasumi has also refined surgical techniques by comparing artery-and-vein versus artery-only clamping, showing that both approaches yield comparable renal function preservation in moderate- to high-complexity masses. His innovative use of tumor surface roughness as a predictor of surgical difficulty offers a novel, objective tool for preoperative planning. With over 46 citations across his most-cited works, including a 2021 study correlating early urine loss rate with long-term continence after robotic prostatectomy, his research directly improves patient counseling and outcomes. Dr. Hasumi’s work consistently bridges technical innovation with practical, patient-centered insights, making him a leading voice in minimally invasive renal surgery.
