[Organ-salvaging operations in tumors of renal parenchyma].

An original method of kidney resection with the use of ultrasonic surgical destructor-aspirator is proposed. The method was applied in the treatment of 19 patients (20 renal resections and 1 tumor enucleation). No complications occurred. The use of ultrasonic destructoraspirator in renal resection enabled isolation of all the intraparenchymatous tubal structures of the kidney, each of them could be ligated and cut if visualization is adequate. This provided a complete hemostasis on the wound surface of the kidney and hemostatic suturing of the kidney wound became unnecessary. This method of renal resection reduced hospital stay of the patients because they had no hemorrhages, purulent complications and urinary fistulas.
