About

Dr. Modassar Awan is a leading figure in the field of minimally invasive transplant surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic donor nephrectomy (RDN). His major contributions center on advancing and comparing the two primary robotic approaches for living kidney donation: the established multi-port (MP) technique and the emerging single-port (SP) method. Dr. Awan’s work, including his seminal 2025 paper on the subject, provides a critical, head-to-head analysis of these techniques, detailing their shared safety and efficacy while clarifying the distinct preoperative and intraoperative considerations for each. This comparative research is instrumental in guiding surgical decision-making and optimizing outcomes for living donors. With his work already garnering early citations, Dr. Awan is establishing himself as a key voice in the evolution of robotic transplant surgery, helping to define best practices that enhance recovery and reduce surgical trauma for donors. His research directly impacts the future of living kidney transplantation, making it safer and more accessible.
