This paper describes robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) from a living donor. The robot is docked between the parted legs of the patient, placed in the supine Trendelenburg position. Kidney allografts are provided by a living donor. Before v...
BACKGROUND: Superselective clamping of tumor-targeted arteries aims to eliminate ischemia of the remnant kidney while keeping tumor bed bloodless during excision.
We present a case demonstrating the use of an endovascular robotic system in the treatment of a saccular renal artery aneurysm located at the renal hilum in a young patient.

INTRODUCTION: Main renal artery clamping and selective arterial clamping are two conventional devascularization methods for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) (1, 2). Decreasing warm ischemic (WI) time (3, 4) and improving clear surgical visua...
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.
