How to improve outcome in nephron-sparing surgery: the impact of new techniques

Abstract: Purpose of reviewNephron-sparing partial nephrectomy is the state of the art for localized small renal mass and it is gaining attention also for more advanced cases. In the present narrative review, we discuss the new developments that have occurred in the advancement of this approach over the past few years.Recent findingsOff-clamp, selective/superselective clamp and early-unclamping techniques are safe and feasible approaches, with potentially superior functional outcomes, and noninferior complications rate … Show more

“…Indeed, renorrhaphy is considered one of the aspects of surgery that can be modified in order to optimize surgical features and preserve renal function after PN. New techniques (e.g., running, barbed, single‐layer suture) may facilitate intracorporeal suturing during PN and minimize WIT and EBL [5], the two main outcomes of our study. At our institution, various renorrhaphy techniques have been adopted over the years.…”

“…Furthermore, with the advancement of surgical techniques, an increase in PN use over time has been recorded and recent guidelines recommend offering PN also to patients with larger masses (cT2 tumours), especially in cases of solitary kidney or chronic kidney disease, if technically feasible [3,4]. However, in the era of minimally invasive surgery, several studies have focused on the most relevant key determinants of patient outcomes after surgery, with the aim of improving surgical technique and achieving better surgical and functional outcomes [5,6]. In the case of PN, various selective clamping and no-clamp techniques have been investigated for many years [5][6][7][8][9], given that renal ischaemia is one of the most important drivers of renal function impairment after PN [6,10].…”

“…Both laparoscopic, robotic and partial nephrectomy for multiple lesions of ipsilateral renal tumors have been reported[ 14 - 17 ]. Some studies have compared the two main surgical options for managing this subset of patients, and similar tumor-specific survival was observed for patients treated with nephron sparing surgery (NSS) and radical nephrectomy[ 18 - 21 ]. Regardless of which surgical mode is selected, the right balance between oncological control and renal function preservation should be considered.…”

“…Last, but not least, despite the recent emerging developments in systemic therapy, new techniques and surgical strategies are used to remove kidney tumors with a maximum of organ preservation. As surgical removal of the primary tumor is mostly the first step in RCC treatment the improvements in nephron sparing surgery and the impact of new techniques are a prerequisite in RCC treatment as described by Cignoli et al [12].…”
