Nurse-led coordinated surgical care pathways for cost optimization of robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy: medico-economic analysis of the UroCCR-25 AMBU-REIN study.

Purpose: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) reduces morbidity, enabling development of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) and day-case protocols. Additional financial costs limit its integration into clinical practice. We evaluated the medico-economic impact of RAPN using a nurse-led coordinated pathway of care (NLC-RAPN).

3D-Image guided robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy: a multi-institutional propensity score-matched analysis (UroCCR study 51).

Purpose: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is a difficult procedure with risk of significant perioperative complications. The objective was to evaluate the impact of preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance with 3D model reconstructions on perioperative outcomes of RAPN.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of all patients who underwent RAPN for kidney tumor by three high-volume expert surgeons from academic centers.

Robot-assisted versus open surgery for radical nephrectomy with level 1-2 vena cava tumor thrombectomy: a French monocenter experience (UroCCR study #73).

Background: The aim of this paper was to assess the feasibility of robot-assisted radical nephrectomy (RN) with inferior vena cava thrombectomy (RRVCT) and compare perioperative and oncological outcomes of this approach to open surgery for renal tumors with level 1-2 inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombus.

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients surgically treated for renal cancer with IVC level 1-2 thrombus in the Urology department of Bordeaux University Hospital between December 2015 and December 2019. Patients were stratified by surgical approach in two groups: open vs.

Evolution of Day-Case Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate Success Rate Over Time.

To describe the evolution of day-case success rate over the years and to identify predictive factors for prolonged hospitalization or readmissions. Retrospective review of all consecutive day-case holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) performed by a single surgeon between January 2013 and February 2019 using a prospective database. Day-case success was defined as discharge within less than 12 hours from admission without any readmission within 48 hours after discharge.

Is recipient's body mass index a determinant of short term complications in early renal transplantation?

Objectives: Obesity prevalence has increased over the past 20 years in the general population and among kidney transplant recipients. General surgical belief is that obesity increases surgical difficulty. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of Body Mass Index (BMI) on perioperative complications.
