Renoprotective Procedures with a Cold Ischemia Time of <60 min Minimize the Deterioration of Kidney Function in Open Nephron-Sparing Surgery for Renal Cell Carcinoma
Abstract:Introduction: We evaluated whether nephron sparing surgery (NSS) combined with meticulous suturing of the cut stump under clamping with cooling is beneficial for oncological outcomes and also assessed the relationship between cold ischemia time and deterioration of renal function. Methods: One hundred and six patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) were subjected to this procedure. Oncological outcomes and renal function according to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the tubular excretion ra… Show more
