RESUMO
Surgical resection of renal cell carcinoma plays a large role in the overall management of the disease. The gold standard for surgical management historically has been open or laparoscopic radical nephrectomy, however, evidence of equivalent oncologic efficacy with improved clinical outcomes has driven the use of nephron-sparing surgeries, especially for smaller and localized renal tumors. A role for surgery remains in metastatic RCC as well, but controversy exists as to which patients may benefit most from surgical intervention in addition to other systemic targeted therapies. This article focuses specifically on renal cell carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma is not described here.

Objectives: To assess the incidence of postoperative arterial malformation (AM) and urine leak/urinoma (UL) after robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) in a contemporary series and to evaluate risk factors for these complications. Materials and Methods: All RPNs were queried from Institutional Review Board-approved retrospective and prospective nephrectomy databases. Demographics, perioperative variables, and postoperative complications were collected. Differences between cohorts were analyzed using univariate analysis. Postoperative complications were graded using the Clavien-Dindo system. UL was defined in the context of signs and symptoms of a collection with supporting evidence of urine collection through drainage or aspiration. AM was identified based on postoperative imaging indicative of arteriovenous fistula or pseudoaneurysm and/or requirement for selective embolization. Predictors of AM and UL were assessed by univariate analysis. Results: A total of 395 RPNs were performed by four urologists between January 2014 and October 2018. Tumor complexity, defined by nephrometry score, was significantly greater in the prospective cohort (p = 0.01). Overall incidence of postoperative complications was 5.6% with cohort-specific incidences of 5.3% and 5.8%. The retrospective cohort had a greater percentage of complications classified as ≥IIIa: 8/13 (61.5%) vs 2/8 (25%). Overall incidence of AM was 2.3% with cohort-specific incidence of 3.1% (7/225) vs 1.1% (2/170). Overall incidence of UL was 0.25% with cohort-specific incidence of 0.55% (1/225) and 0.0% (0/170). The difference in incidence of both complications between cohorts was significant (p < 0.05). No significant predictors for AM were identified. Conclusions: The incidence of postoperative complications after RPN remains low (5.3% vs 5.8%, overall: 5.6%). UL and AM are becoming rarer with experience, despite increasing surgical complexity (0.55% vs 0%, 3.1% vs 1.1%).

PURPOSE: This multicentric international retrospective study aimed to report the outcome of robot-assisted extravesical ureteral reimplantation (REVUR) in patients with unilateral vesico-ureteral reflux (VUR). METHODS: The medical records of 55 patients (35 girls, 20 boys) underwent REVUR in four international centers of pediatric robotic surgery for primary unilateral VUR were retrospectively reviewed. Patients' average age was 4.9 years. The preoperative grade of reflux was III in 12.7%, IV in 47.3% and V in 40%. Twenty-six patients (47.3%) presented a loss of renal function preoperatively and 10 (18.1%) had a duplex system. RESULTS: Average robot docking time was 16.2 min (range 5-30). Average total operative time was 92.2 min (range 50-170). No conversions or intra-operative complications were recorded. All patients had a bladder Foley catheter for 24 h post-operatively. Average hospital stay was 2 days (range 1-3). Average follow-up length was 28 months (range 9-60). We recorded three (5.4%) postoperative complications: 1 small urinoma resolved spontaneously (II Clavien) and 2 persistent reflux, only one requiring redo-surgery using endoscopic injection (IIIb Clavien). CONCLUSION: REVUR is a safe and effective technique for treatment of primary unilateral VUR. The procedure is easy and fast to perform thanks to the 6° of freedom of robotic arms. The learning curve is short and it is useful to begin the robotics experience with a surgeon expert in robotic surgery as proctor on the 2nd robot console. The high cost and the diameter of instruments remain the main challenges of robotics applications in pediatric urology.

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Urinomas have been thought to protect renal function in boys with posterior urethral valves (PUVs), although recent reports have disputed this. This study tested the hypothesis that urinomas protect global renal function in boys with PUV. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of all boys with PUV presenting to a tertiary unit derived from a region with an estimated population of 5.5 million was performed. Comparisons of the initial nadir creatinine, current creatinine, and renal status score (RSS) were made between those with and without urinomas. The RSS was derived from nephrology assessment of current renal status (0 = normal to 4 = end-stage renal failure or transplantation). Results were given as median (range), except for RSS, which was given as mean +/- SEM. P < or = .05 was regarded as significant. RESULTS: During 1989-2009, 9 of 89 PUV boys were diagnosed with urinomas. Initial nadir creatinine was statistically lower in boys with urinomas (31 [18-44] vs 45 [20-574] mumol/L, P < .01). Length of follow-up was similar (5.1 [2.2-17.3] vs 5.9 [1.8-19.7] years, P = .59). Follow-up creatinine was significantly lower in urinoma boys (44 [25-77] vs 61 [29-1227] micromol/L, P < .05), as was the RSS (0.14 +/- 0.14 vs 0.91 +/- 0.14, P < .01). No urinoma boys progressed to end-stage renal failure or required transplant. CONCLUSION: This population-based study of PUV boys demonstrates that urinomas reduce nadir creatinine and significantly protect long-term global renal function.
