Retroperitoneal robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for posterior located renal tumours: Technique and early term outcomes.

International journal of clinical practice
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...

Multi-institutional Retrospective Validation and Comparison of the Simplified PADUA REnal Nephrometry System for the Prediction of Surgical Success of Robot-assisted Partial Nephrectomy.

European urology focus
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...

Robot-assisted Radical Nephrectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Comparative Studies.

European urology
CONTEXT: Radical nephrectomy (RN) is the gold standard treatment for large and locally advanced renal tumors. Although robot-assisted radical nephrectomy (RRN) is being increasingly adopted, it remains unclear whether it offers benefits over standard...

Single overnight stay after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: a bi-center experience.

Minerva urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: Despite hospital length of stay (LOS) being shorter for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) compared to its open counterpart, several series in the literature report on average a LOS of 2-3 days or more. We aimed to assess factors p...

Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: 7-year outcomes.

Minerva urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: The role of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in the management of renal masses has exponentially grown over the past 10 years. Nevertheless, data on long term outcomes of the procedure remains limited. Herein we report oncologica...

Robot-assisted versus open surgery for radical nephrectomy with level 1-2 vena cava tumor thrombectomy: a French monocenter experience (UroCCR study #73).

Minerva urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: The aim of this paper was to assess the feasibility of robot-assisted radical nephrectomy (RN) with inferior vena cava thrombectomy (RRVCT) and compare perioperative and oncological outcomes of this approach to open surgery for renal tumo...

Comparison of Therapeutic Effects Among Different Surgical Approaches in Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Journal of endourology
To systematically explore the superiority of the transperitoneal approach in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (TP-RAPN) and retroperitoneal approach in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RP-RAPN). Several databases were searched including PubMed...
