METHODS: We implemented our 3DVMs together with the Voronoi diagram, a Euclidean distance-based mathematical tool used to calculate vascular dominant regions in other organs. A perfusion volume-based 3DVM was built for all the renal masses scheduled for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) from 12/2019 to 09/2022. On its basis a selective or superselective clamping, limited to the peritumoral area, was planned and performed intraoperatively when feasible. To assess the functional impact of the clamping strategy on the operated kidney a sub-cohort of patients underwent baseline and 3 months postoperative renal scintigraphy (RS), evaluating the split renal function (SRF) and estimated renal plasmatic flow (ERPF). RESULTS: 103 patients were prospectively enrolled in the study. The median (IQR) number of kidney and tumor perfusion volumes were 8 (7-10) and 3 (2-3), respectively. In 79 patients (76.6%) a selective clamping was performed, for 16 (15.5%) patients the main artery was clamped, and 8 (7.8%) patients underwent clampless procedure. The median (IQR) ischemia time for global and selective clamping were 17 (15-25) and 16 (12-20) minutes, respectively. In the 51 patients underwent RS (Table 1), mean change in SRF rate decreased from 11.3% to 7.7% and 1.7% for global, selective (I order artery) and super-selective (II order artery) clamping, respectively (p=0.004). Similarly, mean change in ERPF rate diminished from 18.9% to 9.9% and 6.0% for the same category groups (0.02). CONCLUSIONS: The implementation of mathematical algorithms to 3DVMs allows a precise estimation of the kidney perfusion volumes, minimizing the extension of the ischemic region with the selective clamping and leading to reduce the postoperative renal function impairment.
