About

Dr. Paige M. Porrett is a pioneering transplant surgeon whose research has fundamentally reshaped the landscape of reproductive medicine. Her primary focus is on uterus transplantation (UTx), a revolutionary treatment for absolute uterine-factor infertility (AUFI)—a condition affecting 1 in 500 women that was once considered untreatable. Dr. Porrett’s major contributions include leading the first comprehensive national report on UTx in the United States, documenting the first five years of outcomes through the United States Uterus Transplant Consortium (2023, 12 citations). This landmark work established critical benchmarks for graft survival and live birth rates, transforming UTx from an experimental procedure into a viable clinical option. She also co-authored the second report of the International Society of Uterus Transplantation registry (2026, 3 citations), which analyzed 91 cases worldwide from 2000 to 2024, revealing that 80 recipients had Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome and that 12-month graft survival rates were promising. Her work has directly enabled dozens of successful pregnancies, giving hope to thousands of women. With her leadership in the field, Dr. Porrett continues to drive innovation in surgical technique, immunosuppression protocols, and ethical frameworks for uterine transplantation, making her a transformative figure in both transplantation and reproductive health.
