The association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is
bidirectional and multifactorial. Risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity …

Background Nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) for small renal masses (SRMs) is currently the
standard of care to treat renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The concept of partial resection of RCC …

Abstract Purpose of Review To summarize current options available for robot-assisted
partial nephrectomy Recent Findings Partial nephrectomy (PN) is a standard treatment …

Purpose To define how much of renal function was determined by the preserved renal
parenchymal volume and the ischemic insult during partial nephrectomy (PN) long after …

Robot-assisted surgery has evolved over time. Radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava
thrombectomy is feasible and safe for level I, II and III thrombus in high volume centers …

Objectives To investigate the predictors of acute kidney injury (AKI) after partial nephrectomy
and the impact of AKI stage on long‐term kidney function. Methods Data of 1055 patients …

Objectives To identify predictors of renal function preservation, and to compare the global
and split renal function outcomes of robot‐assisted partial nephrectomy and laparoscopic …

Background Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN)
are used to treat small renal masses (SRM;≤ 4 cm), although there are conflicting results in …

Purpose It remains unclear whether a short warm ischemic time (WIT) improves long-term
renal function after partial nephrectomy (PN) for patients with pre-existing chronic kidney …

Purpose To investigate the role of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-induced lipocalin (uNGAL)
measurement in the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury that may occur after intraoperative …
