About

Randa Akouri is a pioneering surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally advanced the field of uterus transplantation (UTx) as a treatment for absolute uterine factor infertility (AUFI). Her key research areas include the development and refinement of minimally invasive surgical techniques, particularly robotic-assisted live donor hysterectomy, and the comprehensive analysis of global UTx outcomes. Dr. Akouri’s major contributions are exemplified by her leadership in the Swedish live donor robotic uterus transplantation trial, where she demonstrated the feasibility and safety of robotic-assisted donor surgery, a significant step toward reducing donor morbidity. Her most-cited work, "Live birth after robotic‐assisted live donor uterus transplantation" (64 citations), and the detailed surgical evolution described in her 2020 papers (56 and 54 citations) have provided critical protocols for the field. Notably, she has also contributed to the International Society of Uterus Transplantation (ISUTx) registry, documenting over 91 UTx cases worldwide. Through her translational research, spanning from animal models to human clinical procedures, Dr. Akouri has established herself as a key figure in making UTx a viable, less invasive option, offering new hope for women with uterine infertility.
