METHODS In this retrospective single-centre study, 340 consecutive patients underwent LPN and OPN for localized, incidentally discovered, renal masses of <cm7 (cT1). The patients were matched for age, sex, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiology score, tumour side (right or left kidney) and tumour characteristics (RENAL nephrometry score). Demographic data, peri- andcharacteristics, postoperative variables, including operating time, estimated blood loss, complications, hospital stay, renal function, histological tumour staging and grading, and metastasis rates were collected and analysed. RESULTS The median (sem) operating time for LPN and OPN was 145.3 (45.4) min and 155.2 respectively (P= 0.07). The median (sem) warm ischaemia time was 11.7 (2.2) min in the LPN and 14.4 (1.9) min in the OPN group (P= 0.03). The median (sem) RENAL nephrometry scores for LPN and OPN were 5.9 (1.6) and 6.1 (0.3), respectively (P= 0.11). During follow-up, the biochemical markers of glomerular filtration were completely normalized, showing the absence of renal injury and there was no significant difference in glomerular filtration rate between the groups, with median (sem) rates of 79.8 (3.0) mL/min/1.72m(2) for the LPN and 80.2 (2.7) mL/min/1.72m(2) for the OPN group at 5-year follow-up. The 5-year overall survival and cancer-specific survival rates, calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method, were 94% and 91% in the LPN group, and 92% and 88% in the OPN group. CONCLUSIONS LPN and OPN provide similar long-term oncological outcomes in the therapy of T1 renal cancer. With regard to renal function, no damage to the kidney was found after LPN and OPN, with a complete normalization of renal function at the 5-year follow-up in both groups. © 2013 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 189Issue 4SApril 2013Page: e593 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2013 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information Giovannalberto Pini Halle (Saale), Germany More articles by this author Luigi Ascalone Halle (Saale), Germany More articles by this author Domenico Veneziano Halle, Germany More articles by this author Stefano Alba Bari, Italy More articles by this author Paolo Fornara Halle (Saale), Germany More articles by this author Francesco Greco Halle (Saale), Germany More articles by this author Expand All Advertisement Advertisement PDF downloadLoading ...
