About
Masayuki Ohue is a leading surgical oncologist whose research centers on advanced surgical techniques for colorectal and rectal cancers, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted procedures and lateral lymph node dissection (LLND). His major contributions include pioneering work on the learning curve for prophylactic bilateral robot-assisted LLND in lower rectal cancer, a technically demanding procedure that improves oncologic outcomes. In his 2025 study, Ohue systematically evaluated surgical proficiency, demonstrating that the learning curve for this complex operation can be mastered with dedicated training, thereby guiding safe adoption in clinical practice. His work has garnered growing attention, with his most-cited paper accumulating 3 citations shortly after publication, reflecting its immediate relevance to surgeons worldwide. Beyond this, Ohue has contributed to optimizing surgical workflows and patient selection for minimally invasive approaches, helping to reduce morbidity while maintaining radicality. His research is instrumental in shaping modern rectal cancer surgery, offering evidence-based benchmarks for robotic LLND. As a clinician-scientist, Ohue continues to advance the field, making his profile essential reading for surgeons and researchers interested in the intersection of robotics, oncology, and surgical education.
