About
Dr. Naofumi Tsutsumi is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher specializing in minimally invasive robotic and laparoscopic procedures for prostate and kidney cancers. His work focuses on optimizing surgical techniques to improve patient outcomes, reduce complications, and preserve organ function. Dr. Tsutsumi’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety of continued perioperative anticoagulant therapy during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, a finding that directly impacts clinical management of high-risk patients. He has also pioneered methods to omit cortical renorrhaphy in partial nephrectomy, showing that both robotic and laparoscopic approaches yield excellent surgical and functional results. His research on renal sinus protrusions provides critical insights for achieving “trifecta” outcomes—cancer control, renal function preservation, and complication-free recovery—in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy. With over 30 citations across his most-cited works, Dr. Tsutsumi’s studies on neoadjuvant chemohormonal therapy for very high-risk prostate cancer and transvesical bladder diverticulectomy further underscore his commitment to advancing surgical oncology. His work is widely referenced by peers and serves as a practical guide for surgeons seeking to refine robotic urologic techniques.
