Partial Resection of the Kidney for Renal Cancer
摘要
The widespread use of abdominal imaging led to an increased early detection of small renal masses in asymptomatic patients. Minimally invasive surgery is widely used for kidney surgery, particularly for small renal masses. In this chapter robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is meticulously described and perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes are widely discussed.
