The oncologic and functional results of open partial nephrectomy (OPN) are excellent. At the same time, the morbidity associated with an open flank incision can be considerable, 4 and the chance that ...

In the treatment of small renal masses, robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has a superior morbidity profile compared with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN), according to an updated meta-analysis ...

Open partial nephrectomy (OPN) is an established treatment option for selected patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC); a minimally invasive laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) can also be ...

Routine use of expensive hemostatic agents during RALPN does not seem to be justified. The use of hemostatic agents (HAs) during standard robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RALPN) does ...

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 ...

Prediction of a potential lethal phenotype in testicular nonseminomatous germ cell tumor. Comparing the efficacies of neoadjuvant non-cisplatin-based and cisplatin-based chemotherapies in obtaining ...

Current evidence on laparoscopic partial nephrectomy suggests that it is safe and efficacious when undertaken by surgeons with special expertise in this technique. Surgeons undertaking laparoscopic ...

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 ...

Evidence-based recommendations on laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. This involves making small ‘keyhole’ openings, either in the back or in the abdomen, to remove the section of kidney that contains ...
