About
Antenore Giussani is a leading figure in transplant surgery, with a primary research focus on optimizing living donor nephrectomy techniques and improving donor outcomes. His major contributions center on the critical analysis of surgical decision-making, particularly regarding the selection of the right versus left kidney for transplantation. In his landmark multicentric study, "Are there any relations among transplant centre volume, surgical technique and anatomy for donor graft selection?" (2017, 14 citations), Giussani spearheaded a ten-year analysis of 21 Italian transplant centres. This work provided invaluable insights into how institutional experience and minimally invasive approaches influence donor graft selection, directly impacting clinical protocols and patient safety. By systematically evaluating the interplay between centre volume, surgical anatomy, and technique, Giussani has helped standardize best practices in living donor nephrectomy, reducing complications and enhancing graft survival. His research is essential reading for transplant surgeons and nephrologists, offering evidence-based guidance for one of the most nuanced decisions in living donor transplantation.
