Advancements in Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy: Expanding the Feasibility of Nephron-Sparing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Partial nephrectomy (PN) offers equivalent oncologic outcomes to radical nephrectomy (RN) but has greater preservation of renal function and less risk of chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. Laparoscopic PN remains underutilized likely because it is a technically challenging operation with higher rates of perioperative complications compared to open PN and laparoscopic RN. A review of the latest PN literature demonstrates that recent advancements in laparoscopic approaches, imaging modalities, ischemic mitigating strategies, renorrhaphy techniques, and hemostatic agents will likely allow greater utilization of LPN and expand its usage to increasingly more complex tumors.

Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy
The indications for nephron-sparing surgery and for minimally invasive surgery are continually expanding. Nephron-sparing surgery, also known as partial nephrectomy, presents a challenge to the minimally invasive surgeon. Herein, we describe our technique of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. This approach may have potential advantages of including easier excision and suturing. Mo...

BACKGROUND Minimally invasive surgical techniques have revolutionized the surgical management of kidney cancer. Current evidence suggests that the surgical developments gained by traditional laparoscopy have been advanced by the robotic platform, particularly as it has been applied to techniques for nephron preservation. METHODS The medical literature from peer-reviewed journals was reviewed ...

متن کاملLaparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery in the presence of renal artery disease.
INTRODUCTION To describe the technical considerations of laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery in 3 complicated cases involving kidneys with renal arterial disease. TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS Three candidates for nephron-sparing surgery each had a renal mass, measuring 5.0, 3.5, and 2.5 cm, respectively. The renal arterial pathologic features in the tumor-bearing kidney included renal artery ste...
متن کاملKidney Clamp by Using Intestinal Forceps during Nephron Sparing Surgery
In accordance with increase of incidental renal tumor, partial nephrectomy is currently recommended as the gold standard for small renal mass. Since the nephron sparing may prevent the sequelae of chronic kidney disease, elderly patients might be especially appropriate for laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. However, tissue ischemia may occur when the procedure accompany with a vascular clamp whi...
