Abstract

Partial nephrectomy surgery has two fundamental goals: a) negative cancer margins, and b) renal functional preservation. During partial nephrectomy, each minute increase in ischemia may compromise function of the renal remnant. Efforts to minimize, better yet, eliminate renal ischemia are imperative. Our objective is to present the video technique of the novel “zero ischemia” technique of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) in 16 patients with a small renal mass.
