Mehdi El Amrani

About

Dr. Mehdi El Amrani is a pioneering surgeon advancing the frontiers of minimally invasive hepatopancreatobiliary surgery. His research focuses on expanding the role of robotic and laparoscopic techniques for complex liver and pancreatic procedures, with a particular emphasis on improving patient outcomes and reducing surgical trauma. A major contribution is his work on robotic liver resection in the posterosuperior segments, demonstrating that this challenging approach can safely extend the mini-invasive arsenal compared to the transthoracic laparoscopic method (11 citations). Dr. El Amrani has also made significant strides in pancreatic surgery, leading a study on conversion during Minimally Invasive Left Pancreatectomy. This work identified key risk factors and developed a predictive Conversion Risk Score (CRS) to help surgeons anticipate and manage intraoperative challenges, directly linking conversion to severe postoperative complications. Most notably, he has pioneered a novel approach to full robotic whole graft liver transplantation, a groundbreaking achievement that could redefine the standard of care for end-stage liver disease. With his innovative techniques and data-driven risk models, Dr. El Amrani is shaping the future of surgical practice.
