Sumario:Background and objective: Evidence regarding perioperative results and long-term functional outcomes of robotic-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) is limited. We evaluated perioperative surgical results and long-term functional outcomes of RAKT in patients receiving kidney transplants from living donors. Methods: This retrospective analysis is based on a prospective multicenter cohort study conducted from July 2015 to October 2023 across ten European centers. A total of 624 patients who underwent heterotopic RAKT from living donors were included, excluding those who received orthotopic RAKT. The primary outcomes measured were long-term renal function, perioperative complications, and survival rates. Renal function was assessed with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC) was used to describe early (within 30 d) and late (from 31 to 90 d) postoperative complications. The probabilities of dialysis, graft nephrectomies, and any-cause mortality during follow-up were reported in terms of the 5-yr cumulative incidence.
