Comparing Two Different Approaches in Robotic-Assisted Renal Surgery

NCT05377632 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if the novel TR approach is superior to the standard RP approach. The anticipated study outcome is a time saving of at least 30% from first skin incision to detection of the renal artery compared to the conventional RP approach, and also a better workspace perception by the operating surgeon.

Conditions

  • Renal Tumor

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) or laparoscopic nephrectomy (LN)

laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) or laparoscopic nephrectomy (LN) include bilateral tumors or tumors in a solitary kidney. Relative indications include familial renal cancer syndromes such as Von Hippel-Lindau, hereditary leiomyomatosis, or hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma. Patients with chronic kidney disease are generally offered nephron sparing surgery for hope of future renal function preservation. This reasoning also applies to those patients with preexisting diseases that may threaten a solitary kidney such as uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension.
