About

Dr. Yoshiteru Ueno is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose research centers on advancing robotic-assisted surgery for bladder and prostate cancers, with a particular focus on optimizing techniques for complex pelvic procedures. His major contributions include demonstrating the safety and efficacy of the Japanese Hinotori robotic system for radical prostatectomy, where his work on its docking-free design has shown potential for reducing postoperative pain—a finding that has already garnered 22 citations since 2024. Dr. Ueno has also made significant strides in improving outcomes for older patients undergoing radical cystectomy, comparing intracorporeal ileal conduit and cutaneous ureterostomy through propensity score matching (14 citations). His innovative work extends to developing novel surgical devices, such as the "Assistent guide" for ureteral stent placement, and refining vaginal reconstruction techniques like the Mercedes-Benz closure. With a portfolio of highly cited papers, Dr. Ueno is recognized for his meticulous comparative studies, including analyses of lymph node dissection and ureteroileal anastomosis techniques, which collectively advance the field of minimally invasive urologic oncology and enhance patient recovery.
