OBJECTIVES: Martini et al. developed a nomogram to predict significant (>25%) renal function loss after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and identified four risk categories. We aimed to externally validate Martini's nomogram on a large, national, m...
CONTEXT: The development of a tailored, patient-specific medical and surgical approach is becoming object of intense research. In kidney oncologic surgery, where a clear understanding of case-specific surgical anatomy is considered a key point to opt...
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) has been increasingly used for renal cell carcinoma in recent years. But the advantages of RARN over open partial nephrectomy (OPN) are still controversial.
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to compare perioperative outcomes and total and split renal function between laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). Predictive risk factors of preservation of ope...
AIM: To evaluate the impact of the interaortocaval clamping technique for the right renal artery on perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN).

OBJECTIVES: Purely hilar lesions and those abutting the main renal artery or vein may be significantly different in terms of surgical complexity, requiring different resection strategies. To describe surgical technique and to assess its safety, oncol...
Optimal management of duplication anomalies may include an upper or lower tract surgical approach. In the contemporary era, the robot-assisted laparoscopic heminephrectomy (RALHN) and robot-assisted laparoscopic ipsilateral ureteroureterostomy (RALIU...
