About

Tracci McEvoy is a pioneering transplant surgeon whose work is redefining the standards of living donor kidney transplantation through the application of robotic-assisted techniques. Her primary research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical approaches to improve patient outcomes in renal transplantation. Dr. McEvoy’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) compared to the traditional open technique. Her landmark 2022 study, which utilized propensity score matching to compare RAKT and open kidney transplantation, has garnered 16 citations and provides critical evidence supporting the adoption of robotic methods in the United States. Additionally, her 2021 case series on robot-assisted transplant ureteral repair addresses the challenging complication of transplant ureteral strictures, offering a novel, less invasive solution for patients who have undergone RAKT. With her work accumulating growing citation counts, Dr. McEvoy is establishing herself as a leader in the field, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in transplant surgery and directly improving the recovery and long-term outcomes for living donor kidney recipients.
