Completely endophytic renal tumor: A laparoscopic approach.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Kidney cancer is the third most common urologic malignancy and a 2% annual increase in the incidence has occurred over the past two decades, largely because of the increased utilization of imaging. The majority of these tumors are small, so the indications for nephron-sparing surgery and for minimally invasive surgery are continually expanding. Complex kidney lesions, such as those completely endophytic, are still a challenge even for experienced surgeons. Our objective is to demonstrate the operative technique for laparoscopic partial nephrectomy with the aid of intra-operative ultrasound in a man with a totally endophytic renal lesion. CASE A 52 years old man, asymptomatic, with incidental renal mass of 2.9 cm, completely endophytic (R.E.N.A.L score 9p) submitted to partial laparoscopic nephrectomy. Surgical time was 2 hours, with 20 minutes of ischemia. Pathological anatomy confirmed tumor of clear cells T1a, free margins.

Image-Guided Embolization Coil Placement for Identification of an Endophytic, Isoechoic Renal Mass During Robotic Partial Nephrectomy
BACKGROUND Intraoperative ultrasonography has proven to be a useful tool for tumor identification during robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RALPN). However, its utility is limited in renal tumors that are completely endophytic and isoechoic in nature. We present a novel approach to intraoperative tumor identification using preoperative percutaneous intratumoral embolization coil p...

PURPOSE To evaluate the relationship between RENAL nephrometry score (RNS) and operative approach for renal masses. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 206 consecutive patients who underwent renal tumor surgery between January 2008 and October 2012. We divided the patients into four groups by surgical approach: open radical nephrectomy (ORN, 53 patients), laparoscopic radical nephrectom...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy for Renal-Cell Carcinoma During Pregnancy
BACKGROUND The incidence of renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) is low during pregnancy. There are different approaches for timing of surgery and treatment modalities for RCC in pregnant women in the literature. To our knowledge, this is the first laparoscopic partial nephrectomy case in a pregnant woman. CASE PRESENTATION Herein, we present a 34-year-old woman with a renal mass at her 14th gestationa...

PURPOSE To describe our initial experience with unclamped laparoscopic hand-assisted partial nephrectomy for predominantly endophytic renal masses in the setting of relative contraindication to warm ischemia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Unclamped laparoscopic hand-assisted partial nephrectomy was performed on eight consecutive patients from June 2009 to March 2010. All patients had predominantly en...
متن کاملEditorial comment on: Robotic partial nephrectomy for complex renal tumors: surgical technique.
OBJECTIVES Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy requires advanced training to accomplish tumor resection and renal reconstruction while minimizing warm ischemia times. Complex renal tumors add an additional challenge to a minimally invasive approach to nephron-sparing surgery. We describe our technique, illustrated with video, of robotic partial nephrectomy for complex renal tumors, including hilar...
