About

Dr. A. N. Lebedeva is a leading specialist in endocrine and urologic surgery, with a focused expertise in organic hyperinsulinism and nephron-sparing renal surgery. Her seminal work, "Organic hyperinsulinism: radiological diagnostics and surgical treatment" (2016, 7 citations), established a refined diagnostic and surgical protocol for insulinoma and nesidioblastosis, analyzing outcomes in 42 patients—including rare cases of combined pathology. This contribution has become a reference point for optimizing preoperative localization and surgical cure of pancreatic beta-cell disorders. More recently, Dr. Lebedeva has pioneered robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy for complex renal masses, as detailed in her 2024 paper (2 citations). She introduced an innovative technique combining "drug & cold" ischemia in situ, enabling prolonged safe renal ischemia while maximizing nephron preservation. This original approach, performed on Da Vinci Si and Xi systems, addresses a critical challenge in urologic oncology: balancing oncologic control with renal function preservation. Her work bridges advanced surgical robotics with ischemic preconditioning strategies, offering a new paradigm for difficult renal masses. Dr. Lebedeva’s research continues to shape clinical practice in both endocrine and robotic urologic surgery.
