About

Dr. Ryoichi Saito is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing the surgical management of prostate and kidney cancers, with a particular focus on robot-assisted techniques. His major contributions lie in refining robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and partial nephrectomy to improve oncologic outcomes while preserving patient quality of life. Notably, his research on the effects of aging on complications following RARP (7 citations) provides critical guidance for treating older patients, while his study on neurovascular bundle preservation in high-risk prostate cancer (2 citations) challenges conventional surgical boundaries. Dr. Saito has also pioneered the use of 3D navigation models derived from preoperative CT scans to enhance precision in partial nephrectomy (3 citations), and his work reevaluating extended lymph node dissection in the RARP era (3 citations) draws from a large cohort of over 8,000 patients. Additionally, his investigation into neoadjuvant chemohormonal therapy for very high-risk prostate cancer (2 citations) explores promising preoperative strategies to reduce biochemical recurrence. Through these impactful studies, Dr. Saito is shaping the future of minimally invasive urologic oncology.
