Objective: To investigate the time-dependent changes of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) after radical nephrectomy (RN) and partial nephrectomy (PN) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and to determine the risk factors for the new onset of a postoperative eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2).
Patients And Methods: We assessed the renal function of 253 RCC patients by using the eGFR, and investigated the time-dependent changes of the eGFR after the operation. Regression models were used to determine risk factors for the new onset of an eGFR of <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2) in 211 patients who had at least one month of postoperative follow-up.
Results: From the first postoperative day to the 60th postoperative month the eGFR in the RN group was significantly lower than that in the PN group. For patients who had at least 1 month of postoperative follow-up, multivariable analysis revealed that RN (p < 0.001), age (p = 0.028), and maleness (p = 0.013) were risk factors for the postoperative onset of an eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2).
Conclusions: Renal function after PN was better than that after RN, and RN was a greater risk factor for the postoperative onset of an eGFR <60 ml/min/ 1.73 m(2).

Purpose: The incidence of renal cell carcinoma has been steadily increasing over the past two decades, raising the need for minimally invasive approaches. We sought to present the methodology of the percutaneous cryoablation (PCA) procedure developed based on one year of experience with 81 PCA procedures.
Material And Methods: The percutaneous cryoablation programme at Wroclaw Medical University Hospital has been successfully operating for a year.

Partial nephrectomy has become the gold standard treatment for small renal masses. This study aimed to assess the impact of soft coagulation hemostasis on parenchymal volume reduction of the operated kidney after an open partial nephrectomy. We retrospectively reviewed 94 patients with small renal tumors who underwent open partial nephrectomy with soft-coagulation hemostasis at our institution.

Objectives: To examine critical care therapy rates after cytoreductive nephrectomy in metastatic kidney cancer patients.
Design, Setting, And Patients: Relying on the National Inpatient Sample (2000-2019), we addressed critical care therapy use (total parenteral nutrition, invasive mechanical ventilation, renal replacement therapy, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube insertion, and tracheostomy) and in-hospital mortality in surgically treated metastatic kidney cancer patients. Estimated annual percentage changes and multivariable logistic regression models were fitted.

Background: The emergence of telesurgery has received global interest, with secure network transmission identified as a crucial determinant of its success. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and viability of employing quantum cryptography communication in remote partial nephrectomy.
Methods: The surgeon operated on the patient from a distance of over 260 km using remote control of a surgical robot.

Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common malignancy, and nephrectomy is the mainstay of treatment for non-metastatic disease. The choice of surgery depends on the risks of oncologic recurrence, kidney function decline, and perioperative complications. This study aimed to identify factors associated with adverse post-operative outcomes in RCC patients undergoing nephrectomy at Townsville University Hospital (TUH).
