Abstract:BackgroundThe standard approach to hemostasis during partial nephrectomy (PN) is to perform suture renorrhaphy (SR). Application of a hemostatic bandage (HB) is an alternative to minimize blood loss and devitalized renal parenchyma. We aim to evaluate perioperative outcomes of PN with tumor enucleation (TE) comparing SR to HB.MethodsWe analyzed a retrospective cohort of 195 patients undergoing robot‐assisted laparoscopic PN with TE performed at a tertiary referral center (2012–2022). Hemostasis was obtained wi… Show more
