About
Satoshi Mii is a pioneering hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly robotic and laparoscopic approaches for complex liver and pancreatic resections. His major contributions include demonstrating the feasibility and safety of robotic liver resection through a landmark audit of 120 consecutive cases (24 citations), and establishing the efficacy of minimally invasive anatomic liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma using the extrahepatic Glissonian approach (17 citations). Mii has also innovated in pancreatic surgery, notably developing the retroperitoneal-first laparoscopic approach for distal pancreatectomy with celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) to improve resectability in locally advanced pancreatic cancer, and refining robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy with techniques like the modified Blumgart anastomosis and multi-console task division for safer implementation and education. His work, spanning over 150 citations, has helped define best practices for robotic pancreatic tumor enucleation and distal pancreatectomy, and he has been instrumental in evaluating emerging robotic platforms like the hinotori™ system. Mii’s research is widely cited for its rigorous comparative outcomes and technical innovations that are shaping the future of minimally invasive hepatopancreatobiliary surgery.
