Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for completely intraparenchymal tumors.
J Urol. 2011; (6): 2182-7
Management for intraparenchymal renal tumors represents a technical challenge during laparoscopic partial nephrectomy since, unlike exophytic tumors, there are no external visual cues on the renal surface to guide tumor localization or excision. Also, hemostatic renorrhaphy and pelvicalyceal suture repair in these completely intrarenal tumors create additional challenges. We examined the safety and technical feasibility of this procedure in this cohort.
