Functional outcomes of robot‐assisted partial nephrectomy in patients with a solitary kidney
Leveraging a large series of RAPN cases in patients with a solitary kidney, we identified similarly favourable long-term functional outcomes between patients with a solitary kidney and those with bilaterally functioning kidneys. Notably, patients with solitary kidneys remained at increased risk of postoperative AKI. Additional vulnerability to AKI can be conferred by other variables, such as pre-existing kidney disease and warm ischaemia time exceeding 25 min.
