Abstract

OBJECTIVES: It has been well documented that partial nephrectomy for completely endophytic renal tumors is a highly challenging procedure accompanied by several technical difficulties even with the assistance of a robotic surgical system. This study aimed to compare perioperative variables among patients with exophytic, mesophytic, and endophytic renal tumors undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.
