About
Dr. Arcangelo Sebastianelli is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose research centers on advancing minimally invasive robotic techniques for kidney transplantation and renal surgery. His major contributions include developing and refining robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) from deceased donors, a groundbreaking approach that has expanded access to this life-saving procedure. With over 44 citations, his seminal 2018 paper established the technical feasibility and safety of RAKT from deceased donors at a referral academic center. Dr. Sebastianelli also introduced the University of Florence technique for robotic living donor nephrectomy and kidney transplantation, demonstrating consistent improvements in perioperative outcomes. His innovative use of indocyanine green fluorescence videography to assess graft and ureteral reperfusion during RAKT has enhanced intraoperative precision. Beyond transplantation, he has contributed to robotic partial nephrectomy, utilizing hyperaccuracy 3D virtual models for complex cases, and developed the first entirely 3D-printed training model for RAKT. His work on urinary continence recovery after robotic prostatectomy and systematic reviews on prostate surgery further underscore his broad impact. With over 240 cumulative citations, Dr. Sebastianelli’s research is shaping the future of robotic urologic surgery and transplantation.
