About

T Iwabuchi is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving outcomes in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), particularly through complication prevention and surgical technique refinement. His most significant contribution is a landmark study on inguinal hernia after RARP, where he not only identified key risk factors but also developed and validated a novel prevention technique, a paper that has garnered 39 citations and become a reference in the field. In parallel, he pioneered the use of three-dimensional printing for tangible surgical navigation in robotic renal surgery, demonstrating how patient-specific 3D-printed kidney models can enhance preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance. He also introduced a modified anterior approach to bladder neck transection during RARP, offering a simple, reproducible technique to improve surgical precision. With a career dedicated to merging innovative technology with practical surgical solutions, Iwabuchi’s work has directly influenced safer, more effective robotic urological procedures, making him a notable contributor to the advancement of minimally invasive surgery.
