Evaluation of the complications in laparoscopic retroperitoneal radical nephrectomy; An experience of high volume centre.

Objectives: To provide a standardised report of complications after retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (rLRN) in a high-volume centre using Clavien-Dindo classification.

Materials And Methods: We analysed records maintained in a prospective database of 330 consecutive patients that underwent rLRN between March 1995 and September 2016. All complications were graded according to the modified Clavien-Dindo classification.

The effect of anaesthetic management on neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels after robotic surgical oncology.

Purpose: The main objective of this study was to compare the effect of two anaesthetic techniques (general vs combined) on plasma levels of NGAL (Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin) after robotic urogenital oncosurgery. The secondary objective was to correlate NGAL levels with the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI).

Methods: This was a longitudinal prospective study.

Management of renal extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma.

Background: Primary mesenchymal chondrosarcoma of the kidney is an extremely rare malignant tumor. To our best knowledge, only 9 such cases have been reported so far.

Case Presentation: In the current paper, we present the case of a 67 year-old patient with recurrent left lumbar pain, increased fatigability and intermittent macroscopic hematuria.
