About
Dr. Takayuki Goto is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on optimizing surgical outcomes in robot-assisted procedures for renal cell carcinoma and prostate cancer. His major contributions include rigorous comparative analyses demonstrating the perioperative advantages of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) over open surgery, with his 2021 propensity-matched study garnering 12 citations. Dr. Goto has also advanced the field by investigating bleeding risks in patients on antiplatelet therapy during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), and by exploring the effects of aging on postoperative complications—both studies accumulating 7 citations each. Notably, he has pioneered the application of RAPN for anatomically complex cases, such as renal cell carcinoma in horseshoe kidneys, and has championed the use of 3D navigation models to enhance surgical precision. His work extends to developing nomograms for predicting locally advanced prostate cancer and evaluating neoadjuvant chemohormonal therapy for very high-risk patients. With a growing body of impactful research, Dr. Goto is shaping evidence-based practices in minimally invasive urologic oncology.
