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 ...

Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy is an emerging technique that potentially provides advantages over conventional laparoscopic approaches. A retrospective multi-institutional study suggests that ...

For patients with early kidney cancer, removing part of the kidney instead of the whole kidney is often a preferred treatment because the procedure can effectively remove tumors while preserving ...

With the widespread use of abdominal imaging, there has been a substantial increase in the detection of incidental, small renal masses. This change has resulted in a downward trend in the size and ...

Fox Chase Cancer Center researchers find that outcomes of robotic assisted kidney cancer surgery, when performed by experienced surgeons at high volume centers, prove more beneficial to patients when ...

Robotic NSS Without Ischemia for Exophytic Small Renal Masses As nephron-sparing surgery has become widely accepted, increasing emphasis has been placed on reducing surgical morbidity. Cleveland ...

A phase II study of S-1 for the treatment of cytokine and/or tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) refractory metastatic renal cell carcinoma: Updated results. Background: Laparoscopic and robotic partial ...

A 60-year-old woman without any other medical problems underwent a right robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for a 2.5 cm mid-right renal posterior cortical heterogeneously enhancing ...

Anthony Camnetar remembers the first time he was told that he had von Hippel-Lindau syndrome, a rare genetic disorder. He was 12 years old and his mother, who had just picked him up from school, broke ...

The arrival of robotics in surgery has been a roller coaster ride, offering another lesson in how technology in healthcare, unlike most industries, faces challenges to show it’s better than the status ...
