Methods: A retrospective, propensity-matched cohort with 814 patients (1999–2021) was conducted comparing open and minimally invasive (laparoscopic and robotic-assisted) nephrectomy...

... between October 2018 and February 2020. It included all healthy donors with two kidneys of normal size, shape, and position who were deemed suitable for nephrectomy. The CTA examinations were performed with the same protocol, which combined the vascular-excretory phase. Anatomical findings were recorded...

... nephrectomy was performed. GH usually manifests as asymptomatic abdominal distension or vague symptoms. However, very few published reports describe cases of GH initially presenting with respiratory and vascular manifestations. Giant hydronephrosis (GH) is a rare urological condition, especially...

... during partial nephrectomy (PN), so this study aimed to assess the role of HAs in PN. Methods: PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for randomized controlled trials and cohort studies regarding the comparison of HA use alone and standard suturing during PN on January 17, 2020...

...) using a robotic surgical system. Materials and Methods: Between January 2011 and June 2018, we retrospectively reviewed 25 patients who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) or SAE for large AMLs. Ten patients underwent RAPN, and 15 underwent SAE. Patient demographics, AML characteristics...

... cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods: Consecutive patients with RCC who underwent partial nephrectomy or radical nephrectomy between 2005 and 2015 at a tertiary care center were included. Minimum follow-up period was 6 months. A PBT was defined as the transfusion of packed erythrocyte concentrate (EC) within...

... nephrectomy in a kidney transplant recipient with polycystic liver and kidneys. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen showed a narrowed inferior vena cava, compressed by the polycystic liver that moved downwards after nephrectomy. A stenting angioplasty was performed, resulting in remarkable...

... to 2016, 1,000 retroperitoneal laparoscopies were performed – 476 nephrectomies, 201 adrenalectomies, 103 partial nephrectomies, 91 pyeloplasties, 70 nephro-ureterectomies, and 59 miscellaneous surgeries (diverticulectomy). Data collection was prospective. We analyzed age, body mass index (BMI), American...

..., but is less clear if it applies to patients with metastatic disease at diagnosis. Materials and Methods: Review of clinical files of patients submitted to surgery for RCC at our institution. Results: Twenty-one patients underwent radical nephrectomy and thrombectomy from 2000 to 2017, with a median follow-up...

.... The response rate was 51.1% (162/311) including 23 universities. Results: R adrenalectomy and (partial) nephrectomy are performed by 32.7–40.1% of all departments. Transperitoneal LESS adrenalectomy and nephrectomy are performed by 8.6–11.7%. Retroperitoneal RA adrenalectomy and (partial) nephrectomy...

... carcinoma (RCC), the customary therapy regimen changed, but it is not well studied yet whether partial nephrectomy (PN) especially in the elderly is beneficial. From 2000 to 2015, 3,592 patients from 7 clinics undergoing surgery in RCC were identified; 2,323 had T1 tumours. We retrospectively compared...
