Excerpt

Laparoscopic harvest of donor renal allograft has replaced open technique as the gold standard [1]. Renal transplant recipient surgery is conventionally performed using open technique. With advent of robotics, centers across the world have started performing robotic-assisted kidney transplant surgery (RAKT) [2, 3]. RAKT provides potential advantages like less wound-related complications, less post-operative pain and shorter convalescence [2, 3]. The current technique of RAKT requires an incision for the introduction of renal allograft into the abdomen [2, 3]. Vaginal insertion of renal allograft obviates the need for an insertion incision in female recipients. …
