About

Yu Endo is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on optimizing outcomes in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), particularly regarding venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk and postoperative urinary incontinence. In a landmark prospective study (2022, 5 citations), Endo systematically assessed VTE risk after RARP using comprehensive imaging, demonstrating a low incidence and challenging the necessity of uniform prophylaxis protocols for robotic surgery—a contribution that informs safer, more tailored perioperative care. Building on this, Endo’s 2025 prospective investigation (2 citations) identified key predictors of prolonged severe urinary incontinence after RARP, analyzing 299 patients to pinpoint clinical parameters that enable early intervention and improved quality of life. This work directly addresses a major patient concern, offering evidence-based guidance for preoperative counseling and postoperative management. Endo’s research bridges surgical technique and patient-reported outcomes, advancing the precision of robotic urologic oncology. With a growing citation footprint, Endo is recognized for integrating rigorous prospective methodology into practical clinical insights, making significant strides in reducing complications and enhancing recovery for prostate cancer patients.
