Robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has become the most common minimally invasive modality for NSS. The effects of surgical modality on patients' metabolism and in particular extent of postoperative catabolism, in response to surgical trauma have not been well studied. Our aim was to compare early BMI changes post surgery, as a surrogate for trauma stress response, between patients undergoing open partial nephrectomy (OPN) and RPN. METHODS Patients undergoing NSS for a single renal tumor between 2010-2013 were selected for the study. RPN patients were matched with OPN cases based on preoperative BMI and tumor renal nephrometry score (1:1 matching). The lowest BMI post discharge within the first 3 months of surgery was selected and BMI preservation was calculated as proportion of postoperative to preoperative BMI. Univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to assess predictors of BMI loss in our cohort. RESULTS The total of 568 patients (284 pairs) met our inclusion criteria. The two groups were comparable at baseline apart from larger tumours in the OPN group (4 vs. 3 cm; p<0.05). The median time to lowest BMI was comparable between the OPN and RPN groups (24 vs. 29 days; p=0.7). The mean BMI preservation was lower for the OPN group (96.8±4.4 vs. 98.1±4.7%). On multivariable analysis after controlling for age, Charlson comorbidity index, gender, tumor size, nephrometry score, estimated blood loss, occurrence of major complications and pre-operative renal function, the modality of surgery favoring the RPN approach (coefficients B= 1.86 (95% CI (0.57,3.15); p=0.005)) and the occurrence of major complications (coefficients B= -2.96 (95% CI (-5.58, -0.77)); p=0.005) remained significant predictors for BMI preservation after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Occurrence of major complications increases catabolic weight loss after NSS. Minimally invasive NSS delivered by RPN has lower catabolic impact, signified by lower BMI losses in our study, on patients undergoing the procedure compared to OPN. This finding further suggests that RPN delivers minimally invasive surgery beyond the boundaries of just smaller incision sites. © 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 193Issue 4SApril 2015Page: e875 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information Homayoun Zargar More articles by this author Oktay Akca More articles by this author Hiury Andrade More articles by this author Peter C.
