About
Dr. Bora Kahramangil is a leading figure in the advancement of robotic hepatobiliary and endocrine surgery, with a particular focus on minimally invasive techniques for liver resections and adrenalectomies. His most impactful work centers on demonstrating the oncologic safety and long-term efficacy of robotic liver surgery. In a landmark multicenter study (94 citations), he established favorable long-term oncologic outcomes for robotic resections of primary hepatobiliary malignancies. He further solidified this evidence with a propensity-matched analysis (86 citations) showing that robotic liver resection for colorectal cancer metastases yields comparable, if not superior, long-term results to the laparoscopic approach. Beyond the liver, Dr. Kahramangil has pioneered the use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence in adrenal surgery, characterizing distinct fluorescence patterns of adrenal tumors (49 citations) to guide surgical decision-making. He has also been instrumental in refining surgical approaches, comparing posterior retroperitoneal and transabdominal lateral techniques for robotic adrenalectomy (29 citations) and providing detailed patient selection criteria for long-term success (18 citations). His work, encompassing over 300 total citations, has been crucial in validating and expanding the role of robotics in complex abdominal surgery, offering patients less invasive options with robust oncologic outcomes.
