About
E. Capocasale is a leading figure in transplant surgery, with a focused expertise in living donor nephrectomy and the optimization of kidney transplantation outcomes. Her major contributions center on the critical interplay between surgical technique, donor anatomy, and transplant center volume. In her landmark multicentric study, "Are there any relations among transplant centre volume, surgical technique and anatomy for donor graft selection? Ten-year multicentric Italian experience on mini-invasive living donor nephrectomy" (2017, 14 citations), she analyzed data from 21 Italian centers to demonstrate how these variables influence the selection of the right or left donor kidney. This work provides essential evidence for standardizing donor graft selection, directly impacting surgical decision-making and patient safety. By highlighting the role of center experience and minimally invasive approaches, Capocasale’s research has helped shape best practices in living donor transplantation, ensuring better outcomes for both donors and recipients. Her findings are a cornerstone for transplant teams seeking to refine their protocols and improve graft survival.
