About
Dr. Yasushi Inoue is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on optimizing surgical outcomes for patients with urologic cancers, particularly bladder, kidney, and prostate malignancies. His primary research focus is the implementation and assessment of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in robot-assisted urologic procedures. Dr. Inoue’s most-cited work, a 2023 study on ERAS in robot-assisted radical cystectomy (9 citations), demonstrates that integrating these perioperative care bundles can significantly improve recovery for patients undergoing this complex surgery for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. He has also contributed critical insights into nephron-sparing surgery, evaluating the safety and efficacy of off-clamp open partial nephrectomy without renorrhaphy for larger kidney tumors (≥T1b), a technique that may reduce warm ischemia time. His early experience with ERAS in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy further underscores his commitment to advancing minimally invasive surgical care. By systematically assessing these innovative surgical and perioperative strategies, Dr. Inoue is helping to shape a new standard of care that prioritizes faster recovery and reduced complications for urologic cancer patients.
