Summary
This study tests if robot-assisted kidney transplant surgery causes fewer serious problems (like bleeding or blood clots) within 30 days compared to standard open surgery. About 106 adults with kidney failure who need a transplant will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods. The goal is to see if the robotic approach lowers complication rates by 15-20%.
