“…Although the majority of the urologists consider laparoscopic nephrectomy as a gold standard in paediatric patients, some have raised concern regarding the safety and the necessity of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy [3,8]. LTPN was shown to be advantageous in children with a median age of 5 year [3,6]. However, it has not been shown superior to open surgery in small kids [8].…”
