PURPOSE: Robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) is being increasingly performed at selected referral institutions worldwide. Yet, surgical training in RAKT is still unstructured and not grounded into formal credentialing courses including simul...
INTRODUCTION: Semi-quantitative scoring of various parameters in renal biopsy is accepted as an important tool to assess disease activity and prognostication. There are concerns on the impact of interobserver variability in its prognostic utility, ge...
PURPOSE: Reducing operative injuries is important in living donor nephrectomy. The robot-assisted transperitoneal approach has some advantages than traditional laparoscopic techniques. However, longer operation time and risks of abdominal complicatio...

The kidney allograft has been under continuous attack from diverse injuries since the very beginning of organ procurement, leading to a gradual decline in function, chronic fibrosis, and allograft loss. It is vital to routinely and precisely monitor ...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) systems have showed promising results in digital pathology, including digital nephropathology and specifically also kidney transplant pathology.
BACKGROUND: Predicting long-term mortality postkidney transplantation (KT) using baseline clinical data presents significant challenges. This study aims to evaluate the predictive power of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled analysis of preoperative...
INTRODUCTION: Despite significant progress over the last decades in the survival of kidney allografts, several risk factors remain contributing to worsening kidney function or even loss of transplants. We aimed to evaluate a new machine learning meth...
Research on solid organ transplantation has taken advantage of the substantial acquisition of medical data and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to answer diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic questions for many year...
