About
Dr. Maya Campara is a pioneering transplant surgeon whose work bridges the frontiers of endocrine and renal transplantation. Her key research areas include living donor kidney transplantation, parathyroid allotransplantation, and the optimization of immunosuppressive regimens for multi-organ recipients. Dr. Campara’s most notable contribution is her groundbreaking work on simultaneous living donor kidney and parathyroid allotransplantation, a procedure she helped pioneer for patients with congenital hypoparathyroidism—a debilitating condition that often leads to early renal failure. By demonstrating that parathyroid tissue can be successfully transplanted in patients already on immunosuppression for kidney grafts, she has opened a new therapeutic pathway for permanent parathyroid replacement. Her seminal 2016 paper on this topic has garnered 21 citations and is considered a foundational reference in the field. Dr. Campara’s innovative approach not only addresses the dual organ failure in these complex patients but also reduces the need for lifelong calcium and vitamin D supplementation. Her work continues to shape clinical protocols for multi-organ transplantation, offering renewed hope to patients with rare endocrine disorders.
