[Clinical Significance of Preoperative Image Classification Systems in Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy].

Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica
Robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is being used in Japan as a less invasive procedure. RENAL nephrometry (RN) score, Preoperative Aspects and Dimensions Used for an Anatomical (PADUA) Classification and Simplified PADUA Renal (SP...

Influence of Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy on Long-Term Renal Function as Assessed Using 99m-Tc DTPA Renal Scintigraphy.

Journal of endourology
The long-term split renal function after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to assess long-term renal function of RAPN, using renal scintigraphy, and to identify clinical factors related to deteriorat...

Feasibility of salvage robotic partial nephrectomy after ablative treatment failure (UroCCR-62 study).

Minerva urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: Ablative therapies (AT) are increasingly being offered to patients with kidney tumors. In cases of failure or local relapse, salvage surgery may be required. Such procedures often require an open approach, are difficult and have received ...

[Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with selective ischemia].

Urologiia (Moscow, Russia : 1999)
INTRODUCTION: Clamping of the renal artery during partial nephrectomy leads to renal ischemia and a deterioration of its function. An alternative to total ischemia is to isolate and clamp the segmental branch of the renal artery supplying the tumor.

Lasers in laparoscopic and robotic surgery: is there a need for them.

Current opinion in urology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The application of lasers in treating urological disorders is a developing area. In the laparoscopic and robotic surgery, laser energy is not so popular as in the treatment of stone disease and benign prostatic hyperplasia. The aim...

Clinical application of virtual imaging guided Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.

The journal of medical investigation : JMI
Objectives : To evaluate whether virtual partial nephrectomy images could help surgeons identify vascular and collecting system around tumors during actual surgery. Materials & methods : We retrospectively analyzed 36 patients who underwent robot-ass...

Analysis of surgical and histopathological results of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with use of three or four robotic arms: an early series results.

International braz j urol : official journal of the Brazilian Society of Urology
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether criteria exist to guide election between the use the three- or four-arm technique in robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) instead of just the surgeon's preference.
