conclusions there were no significant differences in the survival rates and short-term postoperative complications between the laparoscopic partial nephrectomy group and the laparoscopic radical nephrectomy group for small rcc, but the former was slightly more effective. background renal cell carcinoma (rcc) is a common malignancy of the urinary system with high rates of morbidity and mortality...

results bw was lower for the 5/6 nx group rats after the operations compared with the bw of those in the sham operation group. furthermore, the 5/6 nx group showed elevations in blood pressure, cr, bun, alt, and ast levels compared with the sham group over the course of time. conclusions in summary, ckd induced by the 5/6 nx model caused hypertension and increased serum levels of cr, bun, alt, ...

Partial nephrectomy, using open surgery or laparoscopy, is a standard surgical approach to treat renal disorders. The objective of this study was to compare and evaluate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy using figure eight ligation technique. Mixed-breed dogs were randomly dedicated for partial nephrectomy using laparoscopy (n=6) and open surgery (n=6). During 30 da...

Primitive  neuroectodermal  tumor  (PNET)  of  kidney  is  an  extremely  rare  renal  neoplasm  with only about fifty reported cases in literature.  Presumably,of neural crest origin, these tumors behave  aggressively  and  carry  a  poor prognosis.  We  report  a  case  of  22-year  old  female  patient complaining of left loin pain with recurrent hematuria for last 3 months. On clinical ex...

renal cell carcinoma comprises about 2% of adult tumors. the overall 10-year survival rate of patients with rcc after nephrectomy is about 18-27%. the incidence of metastasis of initial rcc is about 24-28%, but this rate after nephrectomy is as high as 51%. the most common site of recurrence is the lung, however liver and bone metastases are common. there are many reported cases with late metas...

isolated involvement of the kidney is rare in hydatid disease and is even rarer in children. we present a case of primary right renal hydatid cyst in 6-year-old female child who presented with pain right flank of 4 months duration. the patient was managed by nephrectomy.

Background: The standard of care for surgically resectable disease renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a nephrectomy. Post nephrectomy, these patients are at risk the development new onset chronic kidney or progression pre-existing disease. We aimed to report changes in function who had nephrectomy RCC. Methods: This retrospective, descriptive, cross-sectional study identified 137 RCC from 1 January...

Abstract Background and Aims The healthy kidney has reserve capacity, allowing for an increase in single-kidney GFR (ΔskGFR) the remaining after nephrectomy. We evaluated whether higher ΔskGFR, as a reflection of renal resilience, is associated with lower long-term risk eGFR decline individuals undergoing unilateral Method included 1777 participants from observational SCREAM project who underwe...
