Intrarenal Adrenocortical Adenoma Treated by Robotic Partial Nephrectomy with Adrenalectomy

BACKGROUND We present an intrarenal adrenocortical adenoma discovered incidentally after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and total adrenalectomy for a suspicious renal mass. Current literature describes the rare occurrence of an adrenocortical adenoma arising from a renal-adrenal fusion. This case represents an uncommon, benign pathology that should be considered in the differential diagnosi...

Renal artery pseudoaneurysm following laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

PURPOSE We describe the presentation, evaluation and management of hemorrhage due to renal artery pseudoaneurysm following laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of the 345 laparoscopic partial nephrectomies performed by us during a 5-year period 6 patients (1.7%) had postoperative hemorrhage from a renal artery pseudoaneurysm. Patient charts were reviewed to identify pertine...

Isolated renal hydatid cyst managed with partial nephrectomy.

A 35-year-old woman presented with left upper quadrant abdominal pain for one year. There were no gastrointestinal symptoms. Ultrasonography showed a cystic lesion in the left renal area. A computed tomography scan revealed a 10.5 cm × 9 cm × 8.5 cm heterogeneous cystic mass, occupying the superior pole of the left kidney. There were areas of calcification in the lower portion of the cyst. The ...

Frequency of capsular invasion and prenephric fat infiltration in renal cell carcinoma after partial nephrectomy

Background and Objective: Nowadays, partial nephrectomy (PN) has specific indications in renal tumors. There are challenges regarding the remaining and seeding of malignant cells after surgery due to increasing tendency to do laparoscopic PN (LPN) and consequently increased manipulation of the surrounding tumor tissue. The objective of this study is to investigate the frequency of renal capsule...
