About
Dr. Taro Teshima is a leading urologic surgeon whose research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes in prostate and renal cancer, particularly through robot-assisted techniques. His most impactful work investigates perioperative, oncologic, and functional results of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in elderly patients (age ≥75), a study that has garnered 39 citations and provides critical guidance for treating this growing demographic. Dr. Teshima has also made significant contributions to understanding pathological nuances, including the clinical significance and risk factors of ISUP grade upgrading during RARP (13 citations), which helps refine preoperative risk stratification. His multi-institutional study on urethrovesical anastomotic urinary leakage following RARP (10 citations) identifies key risk factors for this common complication, directly improving patient care. Beyond prostate surgery, his work on off-clamp open partial nephrectomy for ≥T1b renal tumors (7 citations) demonstrates his versatility in nephron-sparing approaches. Through these studies, Dr. Teshima has advanced evidence-based surgical decision-making, enhancing both safety and efficacy in complex urologic oncology procedures.
