T3a renal masses include a diverse group of tumors that invade the perirenal and/or sinus fat, pelvicaliceal system, or renal vein. The majority of cT3a renal masses represent renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and have historically been treated with radica...
: Multiple factors are associated with postoperative functional outcomes, such as acute kidney injury (AKI), following partial nephrectomy (PN). The pre-, peri-, and postoperative factors are heavily intertwined and change dynamically, making it diff...
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether we can surpass the traditional R.E.N.A.L. nephrometry score (H-score) prediction ability of pathologic outcomes by creating artificial intelligence (AI)-generated R.E.N.A.L.+ score (AI+ score) with continuous rather th...
BACKGROUND: Intraoperative kidney tumor rupture (TR) can occur during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in daily clinical practice, but there are no solid guidelines on the management and implications of it. The purpose of the study was to in...
PURPOSE: To compare the oncological and perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RPN) and percutaneous thermal ablation (PTA) for treatment of T1 renal cell cancer (RCC) in patients older than 75 years.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) using hinotori, a recently developed robot-assisted surgical platform, by comparing them with those using da Vinci. This study included 303 ...
Single-port (SP) robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is a promising new technique. The aim of this study was to compare surgical and oncological outcomes of SP-RAPN to the multi-port (MP) surgical platform. This is a retrospective,...
