About
Dr. Yashushi Yoshino is a leading urological surgeon whose research centers on postoperative functional outcomes in prostate cancer patients, particularly following robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP). His most cited work, a 2018 prospective study on de novo overactive bladder (OAB) after RARP, has garnered 38 citations and is considered a foundational reference in the field. In this landmark investigation, Dr. Yoshino meticulously tracked 245 patients without pre-existing OAB, identifying key risk factors for the development of new storage symptoms post-surgery. His contributions have significantly advanced the understanding of how surgical technique impacts long-term urinary quality of life, helping to refine patient counseling and postoperative management protocols. By systematically evaluating the incidence and predictors of de novo OAB, Dr. Yoshino’s research bridges the gap between surgical oncology and functional urology, offering actionable insights for clinicians. His work continues to influence guidelines on nerve-sparing approaches and bladder rehabilitation, making him a respected voice in the ongoing effort to minimize the side effects of prostate cancer treatment.
