This is an observational study that follows patients who have received a kidney transplant using robot-assisted surgery. Researchers are collecting information about how well these patients do after surgery and comparing outcomes between patients whose donor kidneys have one artery versus multiple arteries. The goal is to understand whether robotic surgery produces results as good as traditional open surgery, especially for patients with obesity.
Robot-assisted kidney transplant surgery is becoming more common and shows promise as an alternative to traditional open surgery. However, researchers need more real-world data to confirm that this technique works well, particularly for different types of donor kidneys and different patient groups.

If you qualify, researchers will collect information about your kidney transplant outcomes from your medical records and follow-up visits. This is a retrospective and prospective study, meaning researchers will review past data and continue monitoring your results going forward. You won't need to undergo new procedures — the study simply tracks how you're doing after your robotic-assisted kidney transplant surgery.
