About

Dr. Tomoyuki Koguchi is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving functional outcomes after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and understanding the vascular underpinnings of benign prostatic enlargement. His major contributions include pioneering a three-layer, two-step posterior reconstruction technique using peritoneum during RARP, which significantly accelerates the return of urinary continence—a finding that has directly influenced surgical practice. With over 25 citations for his foundational work on continence-preserving techniques, Dr. Koguchi has systematically investigated how nerve-sparing procedures, membranous urethral length, and preoperative bladder contractility affect postoperative lower urinary tract function. In parallel, his innovative research linking local atherosclerosis of the prostatic artery to chronic inflammation and prostatic enlargement (cited over 30 times collectively) offers a novel mechanistic pathway for benign prostatic hyperplasia. His comprehensive approach—from molecular biology to patient-reported outcomes—has produced a body of work that bridges surgical innovation and disease pathogenesis, making him a key figure in advancing both the precision and quality-of-life outcomes of modern prostate cancer surgery.
