In all cases, warm ischemia time was 0 minutes. Mean operative time was 143 minutes (SD = 59), and median estimated blood loss was 138 mL (range 50-1500 mL). No intraoperative complications were encountered, and all surgical margins were negative. Our postoperative complication rate was 14.3%. At the most recent follow-up, the mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 76.2 mL/min/ 1.73 m 2 (SD = 27.6), compared with 78.5 mL/min/1.73 m 2 (SD = 28.9) preoperatively (P = 0.11). Therefore, the mean eGFR decline of 2.3 mL/min/1.73 m 2 (SD = 9.1) was not significant. Conclusions: Off-clamp RAPN is associated with minimal morbidity and minimal decline in renal function on short-term follow-up. Further studies and continued monitoring of renal function are needed to determine if offclamp RAPN provides any advantage in renal function preservation relative to the traditional RAPN with vascular clamping.
