Surgery is generally the first line treatment for localized kidney cancer (cancer that has not spread). Partial nephrectomy is the surgical removal of a portion of a kidney (normally used to treat ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Robotic partial nephrectomy appeared associated with predominantly superior outcomes compared with open or ...

Kidney cancer is among the most lethal of urologic malignancies. The rising incidence of kidney cancer is attributable to greater detection of incidental small renal masses (≤4 cm) from increased use ...

Robotic partial nephrectomy can benefit patients with early kidney cancer. It is safe and effective as well as a preferred approach for treating small kidney tumors. Robotic partial nephrectomy can ...

For patients with early kidney cancer, removing part of the kidney instead of the whole kidney is often a preferred treatment because the procedure can effectively remove tumors while preserving ...

Background: A standard of care for the treatment of small renal masses is partial nephrectomy. The open and laparoscopic approaches have been well described in the literature. Robotic assistance may ...

7-partial-nephrectomy-0516 Robotic partial nephrectomy offers similar oncologic outcomes to robotic radical nephrectomy, but is associated with better preservation of renal function. Robotic minimally ...

Increased detection of the small renal mass over the last two decades has led to greater utilization of partial nephrectomy techniques. Appreciation of the negative impact of chronic renal impairment ...

Intuitive, a global technology leader in minimally invasive care and the pioneer of robotic-assisted surgery, released the findings of India’s largest collaborative and multi-institutional study on ...

For patients with early kidney cancer, removing part of the kidney instead of the whole kidney is often a preferred treatment because the procedure can effectively remove tumors while preserving ...

Robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) led to a lower rate of complications compared with open partial nephrectomy (OPN) in patients with intermediate- or high-complexity kidney tumors, the ...

A total of 35 patients were identified. Clinical, pathological, and perioperative results are documented in Table 1. Patients had a mean age of 62 and a mean tumor size of 2.8cm on preoperative ...
