About
Keisuke Monji is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on optimizing outcomes in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for prostate cancer. His research centers on three critical areas: surgical technique refinement, accurate risk prediction, and postoperative quality of life. Monji has made major contributions by systematically investigating the trade-offs of nerve-sparing procedures, demonstrating how they impact positive surgical margins and biochemical recurrence—findings that help surgeons balance oncologic control with functional preservation. He has also advanced the field by externally validating and developing predictive models for lymph node involvement and extracapsular extension, creating practical nomograms that improve preoperative planning for Japanese cohorts. His work on pelvic lymph node dissection’s effect on early urinary incontinence and the benefits of lateral pelvic fascia preservation has directly informed surgical approaches that enhance continence recovery. With papers accumulating 12, 9, and 9 citations respectively, Monji’s research is widely cited for its clinical relevance. His development of a novel nomogram for biochemical recurrence-free survival represents a notable achievement, providing a user-friendly tool for personalized prognosis. Through rigorous validation studies and technique-focused analyses, Monji continues to refine prostate cancer surgery, bridging the gap between aggressive cancer control and superior patient quality of life.
