About

Vieri Grandi is a pioneering surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing robotic kidney transplantation through intraoperative imaging and fluorescence-guided surgery. His most-cited study, “Intraoperative assessment of ureteral and graft reperfusion during robotic kidney transplantation with indocyanine green fluorescence videography” (2019, 29 citations), introduced a novel application of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence videography (IFV) to evaluate graft and ureteral reperfusion in real time during robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT). This work demonstrated how IFV can enhance surgical precision by providing immediate visual feedback on tissue perfusion, reducing the risk of ischemic complications. Grandi’s contributions have helped establish fluorescence imaging as a valuable tool in transplant surgery, improving outcomes and procedural safety. His research bridges the gap between advanced robotics and intraoperative diagnostics, offering a practical solution to a critical challenge in kidney transplantation. With a focus on translational innovation, Grandi continues to shape the future of minimally invasive transplant surgery, making his work essential reading for surgeons and researchers interested in the intersection of technology and organ transplantation.
