About
Agnieszka Lepiesza is a pioneering hepatobiliary surgeon whose work is redefining the landscape of living donor liver transplantation. Her research centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques—specifically robotic and laparoscopic approaches—to improve outcomes for both donors and recipients. In her landmark prospective registry study of 3,448 cases, Lepiesza demonstrated that robotic living donor hepatectomy yields superior results compared to traditional laparoscopic or open procedures, with reduced complications and faster recovery for donors, and better graft function for recipients. This work, already cited 50 times since its 2024 publication, has positioned her as a leading voice in the push toward safer, more effective transplant surgery. Lepiesza’s contributions are not merely technical; they address the critical shortage of donor organs by making donation less daunting, potentially expanding the donor pool. Her rigorous, data-driven approach and commitment to innovation mark her as a transformative figure in transplantation, inspiring a new generation of surgeons to embrace robotic precision in the operating room.
