Robotic-assisted nephrectomy with level II IVC thrombectomy using Rummel Tourniquets

Int. braz. j. urol; 48 (1), 2022
ABSTRACT Background: Inferior vena cava (IVC) invasion from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) occurs at a rate of 4-10% (1). IVC thrombectomy (IVC-TE) can be an open procedure because of the need for handling of the IVC (2). The first reported series of robotic management of IVC-TE started in 2011 for the mana...

Practical evaluation of the R.E.N.A.L. score system in 150 laparoscopic nephron sparing surgeries

Int. braz. j. urol; 48 (1), 2022
ABSTRACT Introduction: Nephrometric scores play an interesting role in nephron sparring surgery (NSS) planning. The aim of this study is to evaluate if R.E.N.A.L. score (RS) is capable to predict the occurrence of adverse events in laparoscopic NSS. Materials and Methods: We prospectively studied 150 l...

Alternative use of endocavitary probe to guide minimally invasive partial nephrectomy: is it reasonable?

Acta cir. bras; 37 (6), 2022
Purpose: To describe the use of endocavitary ultrasound probe as an auxiliary tool when performing partial nephrectomy in cases of endophytic renal tumors, to standardize the method, and to report the preliminary results achieved with this technique. Methods: Fifteen patients diagnosed with completely e...

Radical Nephrectomy in Renal Cell Carcinoma with Venous Tumoral Thrombus: Long-term Outcomes and Overall Survival

Objective To describe the five-year overall survival (OS) and perioperative morbidity of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with venous tumor thrombus (VTT) treated through radical nephrectomy and thrombectomy. Materials and Methods We evaluated a cohort of 530 patients with a diagnosis of RCC...

Sporadic Renal Angiomyolipoma: Can We Adopt a Uniform Management Protocol

Renal angiomyolipomas (AMLs), formerly known as PEComas (tumors showing perivascular epithelioid cell differentiation) are common benign renal masses composed of a varying ratio of fat, blood vessels, and smooth muscles. They are largely asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally on imaging. The adipose ti...

Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with 3D preoperative surgical planning: video presentation of the florentine experience

Int. braz. j. urol; 47 (6), 2021
ABSTRACT Purpose: Three-dimensional (3D) virtual models have recently gained consideration in the partial nephrectomy (PN) field as useful tools since they may potentially improve preoperative surgical planning and thus contributing to maximizing postoperative outcomes (1-5). The aim of the present stud...
