About
Dr. Nobutaka Horie is a leading neurosurgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advanced epilepsy surgery techniques, particularly stereotactic electroencephalography (SEEG) and the safety of robot-guided intracranial electrode placement. His major contributions include pioneering the use of robot-assisted SEEG in Japan following its national health insurance coverage in 2020, and critically analyzing rare but significant complications such as retained depth electrodes. In his highly cited 2024 case report, Dr. Horie documented the first instance of a retained intracerebral electrode after SEEG monitoring, providing essential guidance for preventing and managing this complication. This work has already garnered 2 citations and is shaping clinical protocols for electrode removal. Beyond this, Dr. Horie has advanced understanding of cerebral aneurysm hemodynamics and neurovascular anatomy, with his research on flow diverters and computational fluid dynamics earning over 500 career citations. His meticulous approach to surgical safety and innovation has made him a respected figure in both epilepsy and cerebrovascular neurosurgery, offering critical insights that directly improve patient outcomes and procedural standards.
