Predicting Surgical Outcomes in Partial Nephrectomy: Clinical Utility and External Validation of the C-Angle Nephrometry Score.

Evaluation of indocyanine green fluorescence guidance in minimally invasive partial nephrectomy stratified by tumor anatomical complexity: a single-center retrospective study

Objectives To evaluate the impact of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence guidance on surgical efficiency and renal function during partial nephrectomy (PN), across different tumor anatomical complexities. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 77 consecutive patients with renal cell carcinoma who underwent minimally inva...

Preoperative prediction model for critical view of safety achievement in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a retrospective cohort study.

Intraoperative blood loss and warm ischemia time as independent predictors of positive surgical margins following partial nephrectomy

Introduction. The presence of a positive surgical margin (PSM; R1 resection) following partial nephrectomy is associated with inferior oncological outcomes. Identification of risk factors for PSM and targeted optimization of modifiable variables may improve the surgical management of renal cell carcinoma and enhance...

Open anterograde anatomic radical prostatectomy: a resource-sparing alternative to robotic surgery in a university training center

Purpose: to compare perioperative and oncological outcomes between open anterograde anatomic radical prostatectomy (AORP) and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), both performed following the same dissection principles, in a single academic training center. Materials and methods: a retrospective cohort of 252 c...

The Utility of the Comprehensive Complication Index in Demonstrating the Complication Burden and Predicting Length of Stay in Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy.

The CCI is a reliable index for demonstrating complication burden and is more accurate than the CDC in predicting LOS, and is more accurate than the CDC in predicting prolonged LOS.

A prospective, observational study to evaluate the efficacy of the retrograde intrarenal surgery scoring system for predicting stone-free rate following retrograde intrarenal surgery

Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) is widely performed for renal calculi; however, stone-free outcomes vary according to the stone burden and intrarenal anatomy. The RIRS scoring system was developed to objectively predict the stone-free rate (SFR) using preoperative computed tomography (CT) parameters. This st...
