About
Dr. Tatsuaki Yoneda is a leading Japanese urologic oncologist whose research focuses on optimizing surgical and oncological outcomes for prostate cancer patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). As a key member of the MSUG94 multicenter study group, Dr. Yoneda has made substantial contributions to understanding the role of pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND), demonstrating that it may not improve biochemical recurrence-free survival in Japanese patients. Their work has also clarified the prognostic significance of lymphovascular invasion, positive surgical margin locations, and seminal vesicle involvement, providing surgeons with critical insights for risk stratification. Dr. Yoneda developed a novel nomogram for predicting lymph node involvement in the RARP era and investigated the impact of hospital volume on surgical outcomes. With over 70 cumulative citations, their research has helped refine surgical decision-making and postoperative management. Notably, their studies on inguinal hernia incidence after RARP and the negative impact of inflammation-related parameters have expanded the understanding of long-term complications and systemic factors in prostate cancer prognosis. Dr. Yoneda’s work continues to shape evidence-based practice in robotic prostate surgery.
