About
Dr. Abdulbaki Yakac is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose research focuses on the intersection of solid organ transplantation and oncologic surgery, particularly the management of prostate cancer in immunocompromised patients. His landmark multicenter study, "Radical Prostatectomy in Kidney Transplant Recipients—A Multicenter Experience" (2024), represents the first comprehensive analysis of surgical outcomes for prostate cancer in this high-risk population. By demonstrating that radical prostatectomy can be safely performed in kidney transplant recipients with acceptable oncologic and functional results, Dr. Yakac has established critical clinical guidelines for an aging transplant population increasingly susceptible to genitourinary malignancies. His work has already garnered significant attention within the transplant and urology communities, with citations reflecting its immediate clinical relevance. Dr. Yakac's contributions address a growing clinical challenge: as kidney transplant recipients live longer, their risk of developing prostate cancer rises, yet evidence-based surgical protocols have been lacking. His research provides the foundational data needed to optimize treatment decisions, balancing cancer control with graft preservation. Through this work, Dr. Yakac is shaping the future of urologic oncology in transplant medicine.
