About
Yohei Abe is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on refining robotic-assisted surgical techniques for prostate and kidney cancers, with a particular emphasis on optimizing perioperative outcomes and preserving patient quality of life. His most cited study (11 citations) demonstrated that continuing perioperative anticoagulant therapy does not significantly increase bleeding risks during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, offering critical guidance for managing high-risk patients. Abe has also made notable contributions to nephron-sparing surgery, showing that robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with cortical renorrhaphy omission yields superior functional outcomes compared to laparoscopic approaches (8 citations). His research on renal sinus protrusions and achieving “trifecta” outcomes in partial nephrectomy (4 citations) further refines patient selection for robotic surgery. Beyond oncology, Abe has explored innovative techniques such as transvesical bladder diverticulectomy during prostatectomy and robot-assisted reconstruction of retrocaval ureters, demonstrating versatility in minimally invasive urology. His work on neoadjuvant chemohormonal therapy for high-risk prostate cancer (4 citations) and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on surgical practices underscores his commitment to evidence-based, patient-centered care. With a growing portfolio of over 30 citations, Abe continues to advance the frontiers of robotic urologic surgery.
