Outcomes of Robot-assisted Partial Nephrectomy for Clinical T2 Renal Tumors: A Multicenter Analysis (ROSULA Collaborative Group)

Abstract: This report shows that robotic surgery can be used for safe removal of a large renal tumor in a minimally invasive fashion, maximizing preservation of renal function, and without compromising cancer control.

“…Today, this paradigm is changing, and MIS, especially robotic surgery, has been shown to be safe and feasible even for large and complex renal tumors. Data from the ROSULA Collaborative Group demonstrated robotic PN to be feasible for large renal masses, maximizing kidney function without compromising on oncological outcomes [73]. Despite the encouraging data regarding NSS for T1b-T2 tumors [74], RN is recommended when PN is not feasible [1], and our data demonstrated the role of the nephrometry score during preoperative planning.…”

“…Indeed, the surgical feasibility of PN in patients with cT1b disease has been reported by several authors [16,17]. A recent report suggests that PN should not compromise the oncological outcome in patients with >7 cm renal tumours even when performed with a robot-assisted approach [18]. However, most of the surgical series comparing PN with RN reported a significantly higher blood loss and complication rate in patients treated by PN [19][20][21][22].…”

“…While we agree in the validity of this criticism, there nonetheless exists a subset of patients in whom a safe and efficacious nephron-sparing procedure or locally advanced resection is truly not be feasible, and with even mild cytoreduction, feasibility and efficacy of such a resection may be enhanced. The senior author of this manuscript bases his opinion on the fact that he has one of the largest series in the literature of large partial nephrectomies 6 Journal of Oncology (>7cm) performed, whether by open approach [62,63] or by minimally invasive approach [64]. We recently also demonstrated efficacy of primary systemic therapy prior to nephrectomy with IVC thrombectomy [65] and believe that our results and those emerging from other groups suggest that concept of primary cytoreductive systemic therapy has merit should be investigated further.…”
