About
A pioneer in vascularized composite allotransplantation and uterine transplantation, Stefan G. Tullius has fundamentally reshaped the field of reconstructive transplant surgery. His research centers on the immunological challenges and clinical outcomes of uterus transplantation (UTx), a groundbreaking procedure offering women with uterine factor infertility the chance to carry a pregnancy. As a key contributor to the International Society of Uterus Transplantation (ISUTx), Tullius co-authored the landmark "Second report of registry of the International Society of Uterus Transplantation," which analyzed 91 UTx cases performed worldwide between 2000 and 2024. This comprehensive study revealed that 67 procedures involved live donors, 80 recipients had Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome, and 12-month graft survival rates were encouraging. His work has been instrumental in standardizing protocols and demonstrating the viability of UTx as a non-life-saving but quality-of-life-enhancing transplant. With over 3 citations for this recent registry report and a broader portfolio of highly cited papers in transplantation immunology, Tullius continues to drive innovation in surgical techniques and immunosuppression strategies, making him a leading voice in the ethical and clinical advancement of uterine transplantation.
