Looking at outcomes after kidney donation surgery
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This review looks at results for kidney donors and recipients who had kidney transplant surgery done either by hand-assisted or robotic methods. It aims to understand how these surgical approaches affect donor and recipient outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old
- You must have been a kidney donor or the recipient in the transplant
- Your transplant surgery must have used a hand-assisted kidney removal method
- OR your surgery must have used a robotic kidney removal method
- If you don’t meet these requirements, you’re likely not eligible for this study

This study checks samples from people after a kidney transplant to better understand how treatment is working at a biological (molecular) level. It may help doctors improve follow-up care and therapy over time.
This study looks at how well kidney transplants work from both living and deceased donors. It may help doctors better understand long-term outcomes for people who get a new kidney.
This trial studies the results of kidney transplants using robotic surgery from living donors. It may help patients receive kidneys with potentially less impact from surgery.
This study follows people who are planning kidney donation or a kidney transplant to better understand how kidney function changes over time. It may help researchers predict risk and improve care by studying health markers in detail.
This study looks at whether special care given to brain-dead organ donors before their kidneys are removed helps the kidneys work better after they are transplanted into recipients. It reviews data from transplants done at Strasbourg University Hospital between 2018 and 2023.
This study looks closely at kidney tissue after transplant to predict how well the organ will work over time. Researchers hope this will help improve long-term care for transplant recipients.
