About
Ryosuke Minagawa is a leading figure in the advancement of minimally invasive liver surgery (MILS), with a focused expertise in refining perioperative protocols to enhance patient outcomes. His major contributions center on challenging established surgical dogmas, particularly through his pioneering work on the feasibility of non-routine abdominal drainage following laparoscopic and robotic hepatectomy. By designing and leading a multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial, Minagawa is generating critical, high-quality evidence that could fundamentally shift postoperative management away from unnecessary routine drainage, thereby reducing patient morbidity and hospital stays. While his most cited work is a recent 2025 protocol paper, its foundational role in a major clinical trial underscores his influence in shaping future surgical standards. Minagawa’s research directly addresses the gap between advanced surgical techniques and outdated postoperative care, demonstrating a commitment to evidence-based innovation. His work is pivotal for surgeons and researchers seeking to optimize recovery in MILS, positioning him as a key architect of modern, patient-centered hepatic surgery protocols.
