About

Dr. Hsin-Chih Yeh is a leading urologic oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for urologic cancers, particularly upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC), renal tumors, and prostate cancer. His major contributions include landmark comparative studies demonstrating that robotic and laparoscopic nephroureterectomy offer comparable oncological outcomes to open surgery, even in locally advanced T3T4 UTUC—a finding that challenges traditional surgical paradigms. Dr. Yeh also pioneered the "single-site sutureless partial nephrectomy" technique for small renal tumors, reducing operative complexity, and developed the innovative "robot-assisted extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy single site plus two model" to overcome limitations of single-port surgery. His work on bladder cuff excision techniques, drawing from a large multicenter Taiwanese cohort of over 1,100 patients, provides evidence-based guidance for optimizing UTUC management. With papers accumulating 55+ citations, Dr. Yeh’s research directly shapes clinical practice by validating the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive approaches, while his investigations into adjuvant therapy for prostate cancer patients with positive surgical margins address critical gaps in postoperative management. His collaborative, multi-institutional studies underscore his commitment to improving surgical outcomes and quality of life for cancer patients.
