About
Dr. Ryuichi Mizuno is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes in prostate and kidney cancer care. His major contributions focus on identifying preoperative risk factors that predict complications and recovery after robotic and laparoscopic surgery. Notably, his 2024 landmark paper in the *International Journal of Urology* provides the first detailed annual record of five key surgical procedures from Japan’s National Clinical Database Urology Division, a foundational work already cited 15 times. Dr. Mizuno has also demonstrated that low subcutaneous fat mass is a significant risk factor for inguinal hernia after radical prostatectomy (7 citations), and he has developed predictive models for urinary continence recovery following laparoscopic and robot-assisted prostatectomy (6 citations). His innovative research on tumor contact surface area as a predictor of collecting system entry during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (5 citations) offers a novel preoperative planning tool. With over 35 citations across his most influential papers, Dr. Mizuno is advancing precision in urologic oncology, helping surgeons better anticipate challenges and counsel patients on postoperative outcomes.
