Retroperitoneoscopy enables rapid and easy access to the renal hilum. Minimizing warm ischemia time is important to reduce kidney damage without compromising the quality of the tumor resection. The 3-mm instruments can decrease surgical aggression of the abdominal wall. METHODS We present the case of a 62-year-old patient, with a history of arterial hypertension, diagnosed by CT scan with a 25 mm renal tumor in the medial side of the posterior aspect of the left kidney. The decision was made to perform left partial nephrectomy by retroperitoneoscopy. RESULTS Three 3mm trocars were inserted in a diamond shape position including one for the 3mm laparoscope. Intrasinusal dissection was performed and Rummel tourniquets placemet without closing them in the primary and secondary arteries. The tumor was enucleated without clamping. The surgical time was 150 minutes with a blood loss of 250 ml. There were no complications. The patient was discharged at day 3. The pathological anatomy was a papillary renal cell carcinoma, stage pT1a, with negative margins. Between January 2011 and January 2015, we performed 50 partial nephrectomies by retroperitoneoscopy. The male/female ratio was 4.87, the mean age was 62 years and the mean tumor size was 34,36 mm. The zero ischemia technique was performed in 39 cases (78%). The average surgical time was 163,1 minutes, and the mean blood loss was 400,8 mL. Five cases required transfusions. One reoperation (IIIb Clavien) and one conversion to open surgery (IIIb Clavien) were necessary. The mean stay was 4.2 days. We employed 3-mm instruments in 11 surgeries. We did not perform clamping in 9 cases (82%). The average surgical time was 131,6 minutes, and the mean blood loss was 309 ml. The mean stay was 3.8 days. The complication was a urinary fistula that required nephrectomy (IIIb Clavien). The aesthetic results were satisfactory. CONCLUSIONS In our experience, retroperitoneoscopic acces with the use of 3 mm instruments provides an excellent access to the intrasinusal branches of the renal artery. In such a situation it is possible to perform zero ischemia time techniques in selected case. © 2016FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 195Issue 4SApril 2016Page: e597 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2016MetricsAuthor Information Juan Antonio Peña More articles by this author Enver Moncada More articles by this author Ivan Schwartzmann More articles by this author Esteban Emiliani More articles by this author Alberto Breda More articles by this author Joan Palou More articles by this author Humberto Villavicencio More articles by this author Expand All Advertisement Advertisement PDF downloadLoading ...
