Kidney cancer is among the most lethal of urologic malignancies. The rising incidence of kidney cancer is attributable to greater detection of incidental small renal masses (≤4 cm) from increased use ...

A total of 35 patients were identified. Clinical, pathological, and perioperative results are documented in Table 1. Patients had a mean age of 62 and a mean tumor size of 2.8cm on preoperative ...

Partial nephrectomy in the setting of metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Outcomes for a multi-institutional cohort of patients treated with intra-operative radiation therapy for advanced or recurrent ...

Preoperative metastatic disease burden to predict overall survival following cytoreductive nephrectomy independent of IMDC risk category. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2020 Genitourinary ...

The probability of surgical success with telesurgery for radical prostatectomy and partial nephrectomy for small renal masses was non-inferior to local robotic surgery in a small randomized trial. The ...

Robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has increasingly been applied to the treatment of small renal masses. Because of space limitations and the size of the robot at the patient side, the standard ...

For patients with early kidney cancer, removing part of the kidney instead of the whole kidney is often a preferred treatment because the procedure can effectively remove tumors while preserving ...

Robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) led to a lower rate of complications compared with open partial nephrectomy (OPN) in patients with intermediate- or high-complexity kidney tumors, the ...

Background: A standard of care for the treatment of small renal masses is partial nephrectomy. The open and laparoscopic approaches have been well described in the literature. Robotic assistance may ...

WIT measures the time the organ remains at body temperature after its blood supply has been cut off. The “safe” duration of warm ischemia during partial nephrectomy remains controversial. Examining ...
