About
Dr. Yoshiyuki Shiga is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for urologic cancers, particularly through robotic-assisted procedures and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols. His major contributions include demonstrating the benefits of ERAS in robot-assisted radical cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer—a study that has garnered 9 citations—and evaluating off-clamp open partial nephrectomy without renorrhaphy for larger renal tumors, showing improved surgical outcomes. Dr. Shiga has also pioneered the use of three-dimensional printing for surgical navigation in robotic renal surgery, with a 2014 paper earning 5 citations for its tangible impact on preoperative planning. His research extends to rare complications, such as asymptomatic renal granuloma following BCG therapy, and innovative training methods using 3D-printed organ models and virtual reality simulators for da Vinci robotic education. With a portfolio of highly cited papers and a focus on patient-centered perioperative care, Dr. Shiga is recognized for bridging cutting-edge technology and clinical practice to enhance safety, recovery, and surgical precision in urologic oncology.
