Functional Outcomes of Robot-Assisted and Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy for cT1a and cT1b Renal Neoplasia with Low-Intermediate Tumor Complexity: Do Mass Localization, Ischemia, and Surgical Approach Matter?
Tumor localization, ischemia type, and surgical approach did not significantly impact functional outcomes in low-to-intermediate complexity cT1 renal tumors. Comparable renal recovery was observed with both on-/off-clamp and robotic/laparoscopic techniques, as long as ischemia remained under 30 min. In this setting, the ischemic strategy may be chosen to enhance visibility and maximize parenchymal preservation.
