Minimally Invasive Surgery

Urologic operations done through small incisions, by laparoscopy or with a surgical robot, rather than through an open one. Dr. Khalil’s publications in this area include a critical literature analysis of robotic sacrocolpopexy (Frontiers in Surgery, 2025), a report on robotic-assisted pyeloureterostomy after kidney transplantation, a single-institution series on pure laparoscopic donor nephrectomy, and a study of renal artery unclamping in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.
