BACKGROUND: There is an ongoing need and search for a simple yet accurate nephrometry scoring system for predicting the postoperative outcomes after partial nephrectomy (PN). Simplified PADUA Renal (SPARE) Nephrometry Scoring System, a simplified ver...
To evaluate the outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in cystic renal tumors. We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent RAPN for either cystic ( = 46) or solid ( = 271) renal tumors at Fujita Health University between 2010 ...
For patients with clinically localized renal masses, positive surgical margins (PSMs) after robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) have been associated with a higher risk of disease recurrence, although some studies have challenged this conclusion. Owing...
To compare perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes between robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) for renal hilar tumors. We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent minimally invasive ...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether robot-assisted partial nephrectomy compared with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy is effective for renal hilar tumor removal.
To report trifecta outcomes of our "off-clamp" partial nephrectomy (PN) patients operated without main renal artery and/or any selective/superselective clamping. Between April 2008 and March 2020, 52 patients received "off-clamp" robot-assisted par...
OBJECTIVES: To test contemporary rates and predictors of open conversion at minimally invasive partial nephrectomy (MIPN: laparoscopic or robotic partial nephrectomy).

BACKGROUND: Traditionally, the trans-peritoneal approach is preferred for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RPN). However, retroperitoneal RPN (RP-RPN) has recently become widespread because of the advantages of easier access to the hilum, ease dis...
BACKGROUND: The use of a nephron-sparing surgery for the treatment of localized renal masses is being pushed to more challenging cases. However, this procedure is not devoid of risks, and the Radius, Exophytic/Endophytic, Nearness, Anterior/Posterior...
