Renal cell carcinoma has historically been managed by radical nephrectomy, but as knowledge of the disease has advanced, nephron sparing surgery has become the norm in appropriately selected tumors. Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) has been shown to have comparable oncologic outcomes and a shorter convalescence period compared to the traditional open partial nephrectomy. Dissemination of techniques has led to significantly increased use of minimally invasive nephron sparing surgery, and LPN remains a cost-effective and efficacious method for approaching small renal masses.

Determinants of conventional and contrast-enhanced ultrasound diagnosis of fat-poor angiomyolipoma <5 cm.
Front Oncol
December 2024
Fujian Provincial Hospital, Provincial Clinical Medical College, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, China.
Purpose: This study aims to assess the diagnostic efficacy of conventional ultrasound (CUS) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in detecting fat-poor angiomyolipomas(AML) with dimensions less than 5 cm. Additionally, the study seeks to identify independent indicators for predicting the presence of fat-poor AML.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients diagnosed with renal AML and renal cell carcinoma, who were admitted and underwent surgery at Fujian Provincial Hospital from January 2013 to October 2023.
Construction and application of a three-dimensional vascular variation-based nephrometry scoring system for completely endophytic renal tumors.

Department of Urology, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, Shanghai, China.
Background: Completely endophytic renal tumors (CERT) pose significant challenges due to their anatomical complexity and loss of visual clues about tumor location. A facile scoring model based on three-dimensional (3D) reconstructed images will assist in better assessing tumor location and vascular variations.
Methods: In this retrospective study, 80 patients diagnosed with CERT were included.
Incidence of Proteinuria Post Radical Nephrectomy in Comparison to Partial Nephrectomy: A Comparative Study.

College of Medicine, King Saud Bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Riyadh, SAU.
Objectives The objective of this study is to enhance understanding of the incidence and impact of proteinuria following nephrectomy, to guide clinical decision-making, and to optimize post-operative monitoring strategies. Specifically, the study seeks to compare the incidence of proteinuria in patients undergoing radical nephrectomy and those receiving partial nephrectomy, thereby contributing valuable insights into post-surgical outcomes that could inform treatment approaches and improve patient care. Methods It is a retrospective cohort design, analyzing clinical data from patients who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy in King Abdulaziz Medical City (KAMC), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between 2014 and 2022.

Renorrhaphy is often performed after tumor resection during robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN). This study aimed to investigate the association between renorrhaphy performance and inflammatory markers. A retrospective cohort study was conducted including patients with renal cell carcinoma who underwent RAPN at eight institutions in Japan between April 2016 and November 2023.

Background: Evaluating risk factors for bleeding events in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for renal angiomyolipoma (RAML) is essential for improving surgical outcomes.
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent RAPN for renal masses between May 2019 and June 2023 at a single medical center, categorizing them into AML and non-AML groups. We assessed demographic data, perioperative complications, and postoperative outcomes.
