In a meta-analysis twice as large as any other, robotic partial nephrectomy had a superior morbidity profile compared with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

Prior research by Derweesh has also shown that partial nephrectomy can reduce the risk of osteoporosis and chronic kidney insufficiency, which can lead to heart attacks and metabolic disturbances.

Maximal renal preservation at the time of partial nephrectomy, with little or no warm ischaemia time, remains a challenge. Recently, Sciarra and colleagues 1 reported their experience with thulium ...

Video-based evaluation of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy may be an important step to assess surgical skill and improve patient care, according to recently published data. “Surgical technical ...

Background: Partial nephrectomy in upper pole kidney tumors represents a distinct surgical challenge. Data on minimally invasive nephron sparing surgery in this context are scarce. We set out to ...

Over the past 10 years, partial nephrectomy has emerged as the gold standard for treatment of small renal masses, with equivalent oncologic outcomes, better preservation of renal function, and ...

SAN DIEGO -- Use of neoadjuvant axitinib (Inlyta) resulted in significant reductions in tumor size and complexity, enabling partial nephrectomy in a cohort of patients with highly complex renal ...

Partial nephrectomy for small renal tumors is associated with lower risk of cancer-specific and other-cause mortality in patients aged 75 years and older.

Background: Partial nephrectomy (PN) has reported equivalent oncologic outcomes with superior renal function outcomes when compared to radical nephrectomy (RN) for treatment of localized renal cell ...

Laparoscopic minimally invasive partial nephrectomy (MIPN) is the preferred technique in renal surgery, especially T1 phase kidney tumours, and it is recommended for the protection of renal functions ...

Sometimes a small cancer may involve only partial removal of the kidney or partial nephrectomy. Generally Urologists performs this procedure in the operation theatre.
