Background: A standard of care for the treatment of small renal masses is partial nephrectomy. The open and laparoscopic approaches have been well described in the literature. Robotic assistance may ...

Kidney cancer is among the most lethal of urologic malignancies. The rising incidence of kidney cancer is attributable to greater detection of incidental small renal masses (≤4 cm) from increased use ...

The probability of surgical success with telesurgery for radical prostatectomy and partial nephrectomy for small renal masses was non-inferior to local robotic surgery in a small randomized trial. The ...

University of Iowa Health announced in early February 2026 that it had successfully completed its first robotic living donor nephrectomy ...

Banner University Medicine Tucson has reached a milestone by completing its first robotic-assisted living donor nephrectomy.

In the treatment of small renal masses, robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has a superior morbidity profile compared with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN), according to an updated meta-analysis ...

For completely endophytic kidney tumors, which grow inward, both open partial nephrectomy (OPN) and robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) led to excellent patient outcomes in a recent study. When ...

An international study examined outcomes between a single-port (SP) versus a multi-port (MP) approach to RAPN, with a focus on elderly patients. Despite similar demographics among patients ≤64 years ...

Patna: Doctors at the Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (IGIMS) will perform three kidney-related robotic surgeries on Friday, including two for kidney cancer, as its ongoing clinical trial ...

WIT measures the time the organ remains at body temperature after its blood supply has been cut off. The “safe” duration of warm ischemia during partial nephrectomy remains controversial. Examining ...
