Simplified PADUA renal (SPARE) nephrometry score validation and long-term outcomes after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.

Background: International guidelines suggest the use of anatomic scores to predict surgical outcomes after partial nephrectomy (PN). We aimed at validating the use of Simplified PADUA Renal (SPARE) nephrometry score in robot-assisted PN (RAPN).

Materials And Methods: Three hundred and sixty-eight consecutive RAPN patients were included.

The Impact of Previous Prostate Surgery on Surgical Outcomes for Patients Treated with Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer.

Background: The feasibility and safety of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) may be undermined by unfavorable preoperative surgical characteristics such as previous prostate surgery (PPS).

Objective: To compare perioperative outcomes for patients undergoing RARC with versus without a history of PPS.

Design, Setting, And Participants: The study included 220 consecutive patients treated with RARC and pelvic lymph node dissection for bladder cancer at a single European tertiary centre.
