RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Support care aims to improve the experience of patients. m-health is one of the tools recently developed to promote patient empowerment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the appreciation of an m-health application to enhance prostatectomy path for patients suffering from prostate cancer. METHOD: A prospective monocentric study was conducted in the urology department of the University Hospital of Rennes from February to April 2023. MyCHU application was optimized by integrating information sheets in the postoperative period after prostatectomy on sphincter rehabilitation exercises, erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence. The questionnaire used to evaluate the usability of "MyCHU" application was the System Usability Scale (SUS). Semi-structured interviews explored the patients' feelings about the content of the information sheets and the impact on their empowerment regarding sexual disorders. RESULTS: Twelve patients participated in this study and 7 agreed to complete an interview The average SUS score was 75.58, which indicate an high usability. Patients appreciated the fact that the application structured their healthcare pathway by centralizing information. The information sheets were clear and accurate. The impact on their empowerment was positive, with a gain in their ability to take ownership of the therapies. CONCLUSION: The role of digital technology in health care has been growing in recent years. Our study has shown the interest that mobile application can bring to the patient who undergoes prostatectomy. It increases his empowerment and favor the dialogue with his surgeon.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Delayed graft function (DGF) is a common complication after transplantation of deceased donor kidneys. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using computed tomography texture analysis (CT-TA) of the donor kidney to predict delayed graft function (DGF) following kidney transplantation from cadaveric donors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We made a retrospective review of all consecutive DBD and DCD kidney donors admitted to our institution and their corresponding KTRs between December 2014 and January 2019. We extracted 15 image features from unenhanced CT and contrast-enhanced CT corresponding to first order and second order Haralick textural features. Predictors of DGF were evaluated by univariable and multivariable analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) to predict DGF was calculated for the predictors. RESULTS: A total of 115 patients were included in the study. DGF occurred in 15 patients (13%). Recipient body mass index (BMI) (P=0.003) and Skewness (P=0.05) represented independent predictors in the multivariate model. The combination of both clinical and textural features in a bivariate model reached a ROC-AUC of 0.79 (95% CI: 0.64-0.94) in predicting the probability of DGF. CONCLUSION: Results from this preliminary study suggest that CT texture analysis might be a promising quantitative imaging tool to help physician predict DFG after kidney transplantation from cadaveric donors. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4/5.

OBJECTIVE: To perform an external validation of this RC-pentafecta. METHOD: Between January 2014 and December 2019, 104 consecutive patients who underwent RARC with ICUD within 6 urological centers were analyzed retrospectively. Patients who simultaneously demonstrated negative soft tissue surgical margins (STSMs), a lymph node (LN) yield ≥ 16, absence of major (Clavien-Dindo grade III-V) 90-day postoperative complications, absence of UD-related long-term sequelae, and absence of 12-month clinical recurrence were considered to have achieved RC-pentafecta. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to measure predictors for achieving RC-pentafecta. We analyzed the influence of this RC-pentafecta on survival, and the impact ofthe surgical experience. RESULTS: Since 2014, 104 patients who had completed at least 12 months of follow-up were included. Over a mean follow-up of 18 months, a LN yield ≥ 16, negative STSMs, absence of major complications at 90 days, and absence of UD-related surgical sequelae and clinical recurrence at ≤ 12 months were observed in 56%, 96%, 85%, 81%, and 91% of patients, respectively, resulting in a RC-pentafecta rate of 39.4%. Multivariate analysis showed that age was an independent predictor of pentafecta achievement (odds ratio [OR], 0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.90. 0.99; p = 0.04). The surgeon experience had an impact on the validation of the criteria. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed that the RC-pentafecta is reproducible and could be externally used for the outcome assessment after RARC with ICUD. Therefore, the RC-pentafecta could be a useful tool to assess surgical success and its impact on different outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To propose recommendations for the management of renal cell carcinomas (RCC) of the renal transplant. METHOD: Following a systematic approach, a review of the literature (Medline) was conducted by the CTAFU to evaluate prevalence, diagnosis and management of RCC arousing in the renal transplant. References were assessed according to a predefined process to propose recommendations with levels of evidence. RESULTS: Renal cell carcinomas of the renal transplant affect approximately 0.2% of recipients. Mostly asymptomatic, these tumors are mainly diagnosed on a routine imaging of the renal transplant. Predominant pathology is clear cell carcinomas but papillary carcinomas are more frequent than in general population (up to 40-50%). RCC of the renal transplant is often localized, of low stage and low grade. According to tumor characteristics and renal function, preferred treatment is radical (transplantectomy) or nephron sparing through partial nephrectomy (open or minimally invasive approach) or thermoablation after percutaneous biopsy. Although no robust data support a switch of immunosuppressive regimen, some authors suggest to favor the use of mTOR inhibitors. CTAFU does not recommend a mandatory waiting time after transplantectomy for RCC in candidates for a subsequent renal tranplantation when tumor stageAsunto(s)

RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To define guidelines for the management of renal cell carcinoma of the native kidney (NKRCC) in kidney transplant (KTx) recipients and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients candidates for renal transplantation. METHOD: A review of the literature following a systematic approach (Medline) was conducted by the CTAFU to report renal cell carcinoma epidemiology, screening, diagnosis and management in KTx candidates and recipients. References were assessed according to a predefined process to propose recommendations with the corresponding levels of evidence. RESULTS: ESRD patients are at higher risk of RCC with a standardized incidence ratio of approximately 4,5 as compared with general population. NKRCC tumors occur in 1 to 3 % of KTx recipients with a 10 to 15-fold increased risk as compared with general population, especially in patients with acquired multicystic kidney disease. Most authors suggest yearly monitoring of the native kidneys using ultrasound imaging. Radical nephrectomy (either open or laparoscopic approach) is the preferred treatment of NKRCC in KTx recipients and RCC in ESRD. Surveillance in a valid option in small or cystic renal masses. In the localized setting, change in immunosuppressive therapy is not recommended besides perioperative avoidance of mTOR inhibitor to limit morbidity. CTAFU does not recommend a mandatory waiting time after nephrectomy for RCC in ESRD patients candidates for renal tranplantation when tumor stageAsunto(s)

RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To propose surgical recommendations for urothelial carcinoma management in kidney transplant recipients and candidates. METHOD: A review of the literature (Medline) following a systematic approcah was conducted by the CTAFU regarding the epidemiology, screening, diagnosis and treatment of urothelial carcinoma in kidney transplant recipients and candidates for renal transplantation. References were assessed according to a predefined process to propose recommendations with levels of evidence. RESULTS: Urothelial carcinomas occur in the renal transplant recipient population with a 3-fold increased incidence as compared with general population. While major risk factors for urothelial carcinomas are similar to those in the general population, aristolochic acid nephropathy and BK virus infection are more frequent risk factors in renal transplant recipients. As compared with general population, NMIBC in the renal transplant recipients are associated with earlier and higher recurrence rate. The safety and efficacy of adjuvant intravesical therapies have been reported in retrospective series. Treatment for localized MIBC in renal transplant recipients is based on radical cystectomy. In the candidate for a kidney transplant with a history of urothelial tumor, it is imperative to perform follow-up cystoscopies according to the recommended frequency, depending on the risk of recurrence and progression of NMIBC and to maintain this follow-up at least every six months up to transplantation whatever the level of risk of recurrence and progression. Based on current data, the present recommendations propose guidelines for waiting period before active wait-listing renal transplant candidates with a history of urothelial carcinoma. CONCLUSION: The french recommendations from CTAFU should contribute to improve the management of urothelial carcinoma in renal transplant patients and renal transplant candidates by integrating both oncologic objectives and access to transplantation.

OBJECTIVE: To define guidelines for the use of antiplatelet therapy (AT) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) in candidates for kidney allotransplantation. METHOD: A review of the medical literature following a systematic approach was conducted by the CTAFU to report the use of AT and DOAC before major surgery and in the setting of advanced chronic kidney disease, defining their managment prior to kidney transplantation with the corresponding level of evidence. RESULTS: DOAC are not recommended in patients under dialysis. Aspirin therapy, but not anti-P2Y12 and DOAC, may be maintained during renal transplantation. Anti-P2Y12 and DOAC should not be use in patients awaiting a kidney transplant, except when a living donor is scheduled, therefore authorizing treatment interruption in optimal conditions. Further data regarding DOAC reversion and monitoring may improve their use in this setting. Global level of evidence is weak. CONCLUSION: These French recommendations should contribute to improve surgical management of kidney transplant candidates exposed to AT or DOA.

OBJECTIVE: To define guidelines for the management of localized prostate cancer (PCa) in kidney transplant (KTx) candidates and recipients. METHOD: A systematic review (Medline) of the literature was conducted by the CTAFU to report prostate cancer epidemiology, screening, diagnosis and management in KTx candidates and recipients with the corresponding level of evidence. RESULTS: KTx recipients are at similar risk for PCa as general population. Thus, PCa screening in this setting is defined according to global French guidelines from CCAFU. Systematic screening is proposed in candidates for renal transplant over 50 y-o. PCa diagnosis is based on prostate biopsies performed after multiparametric MRI and preventive antibiotics. CCAFU guidelines remain applicable for PCa treatment in KTx recipients with some specificities, especially regarding lymph nodes management. Treatment options in candidates for KTx need to integrate waiting time and access to transplantation. Current data allows the CTAFU to propose mandatory waiting times after PCa treatment in KTx candidates with a weak level of evidence. CONCLUSION: These French recommendations should contribute to improve PCa management in KTx recipients and candidates, integrating oncological objectives with access to transplantation.

OBJECTIVE: To propose surgical recommendations for the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant recipients and candidates. METHOD: Following a systematic approach, a review of the literature (Medline) was conducted by the CTAFU focusing on medical and surgical treatment of LUTS and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant recipients and candidates. References were assessed according to a predefined process to propose recommendations with levels of evidence. RESULTS: Functional bladder capacity and bladder compliance are impaired during dialysis. LUTS, related to pre-kidney transplantion alterations, frequently improve spontaneously after kidney transplantation. LUTS secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) may be underestimated before kidney transplantation due to oliguria, low bladder compliance and low bladder capacity. In LUTS associated with BPH, anticholinergics require dosage adjustment with creatinine clearance. If surgery is indicated after kidney transplantation, procedure can be safely performed in the early post-transplant course after removal of ureteral stent. Surgical management of urinary incontinence does not seem to be associated with an icreased risk for infectious complications in kidney transplant recipients. Particular attention should be paid to the management of postvoid residual and bladder pressures in case of neurological bladder disease. Optimal care of neurological bladder should be provided prior to transplantation: with a cautious management, and despite an increased occurrence of febrile urinary tract infections, transplant survival is not compromised. CONCLUSION: These recommendations must contribute to improve the management of lower urinary tract symptoms and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant patients and kidney transplant candidates.

OBJECTIVE: To propose surgical recommendations for living donor nephrectomy. METHOD: Following a systematic approach, a review of the literature (Medline) was conducted by the CTAFU regarding functional and anatomical assessment of kidney donors, including which side the kidney should be harvested from. Distinct surgical techniques and approaches were evaluated. References were considered with a predefined process to propose recommendations with the corresponding levels of evidence. RESULTS: The recommendations clarify the legal and regulatory framework for kidney donation in France. A rigorous assessment of the donor is one of the essential prerequisites for donor safety. The impact of nephrectomy on kidney function needs to be anticipated. In case of modal vascularization of both kidneys without a relative difference in function or urologic abnormality, removal of the left kidney is the preferred choice to favor a longer vein. Mini-invasive approaches for nephrectomy provide faster donor recovery, less donor pain and shorter hospital stay than open surgery. CONCLUSION: These French recommendations must contribute to improving surgical management of candidates for kidney donation.

OBJECTIVE: To define guidelines for the management of kidney stones in kidney transplant (KTx) donor or recipients. METHOD: Following a systematic approach, a review of the literature (Medline) was conducted by the CTAFU to report kidney stone epidemiology, diagnosis and management in KTx donors and recipients with the corresponding level of evidence. RESULTS: Prevalence of kidney stones in deceased donor is unknown but reaches 9.3% in living donors in industrialized countries. Except in Maastrich 2 donors, diagnosis is done on systematic pre-donation CT scan according to standard french procedure. No prospective study has compared therapeutic strategies available for the management of kidney stones in KTx donor: ureteroscopy or an extra corporeal lithotripsy in case of living donor prior to donation, ex vivo approach (pyelotomy or ureteroscopy), ureterocopy in the KTx recipient or surveillance. De novo kidney stones result from a lithogenesis process to be identified and treated in order to avoid recurrences. The context of solitary functional kidney renders the prevention of recurrence of great importance. Diagnosis is suspected when identification of a renal graft dysfunction, hematuria or urinary tract infection with renal pelvis dilatation. Stone size and location are determined by computed tomography. There are no prospective, controlled studies on kidney stone management in the KTx. The therapeutic strategies are similar to standard management in general population. CONCLUSION: These French recommendations should contribute to improve kidney stones management in KTx donor and recipients.

PURPOSE: Ileal orthotopic neobladder (IONB) reconstruction is the preferred urinary diversion among selected patients who have undergone radical cystectomy (RC) for bladder cancer (BCa). There is insufficient data regarding patients' quality of life (QoL), sexual and urinary outcomes. Our objectives were to assess QoL in a multicentre cohort study, and to identify related clinical, oncological and functional factors. METHODS: Patients who underwent RC with IONB reconstruction for BCa from 2010 to 2017 at one of the three French hospitals completed the following self-reported questionnaires: European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) generic (QLQ-C30) and bladder cancer specific instruments (QLQ-BLM30). To assess urinary symptoms, patients completed the Urinary Symptom Profile questionnaire (USP) and a three-day voiding diary. Univariate and multivariate analyses were computed to identify clinical, pathological, and functional predictors of global QoL score. RESULTS: Seventy-three patients completed questionnaires. The median age was 64 years and 86.3% were men. The median interval between surgery and responses to questionnaires was 36 months (range 12-96). Fifty-five percent of patients presented a high global QoL (EORTC-QLQC30, median score 75). A pre-RC American Society of Anesthesiologists score > 2, active neoplasia, sexual inactivity, and stress urinary incontinence were associated with a worse QoL. After a multivariate analysis, sexual inactivity was the only independent factor related to an altered QoL. CONCLUSION: Patients with IONB reconstruction after RC have a high global QoL. Sexual activity could independently impact the global QoL, and it should be assessed pre- and post-operatively by urologists.

PURPOSE: To compare quality of life and functional outcomes associated with orthotopic neobladder (ONB) and ileal conduit (IC) after anterior pelvic exenteration for bladder cancer in women, through a multicentric cross-sectional study. METHODS: All women who have undergone an anterior pelvic exenteration associated with ONB or IC for a bladder cancer between January 2004 and December 2014 within the three participating university hospital centers and that were still alive in February 2016 were included. Three distinct auto-administered questionnaires were submitted to the patients: the EORTC QLQ-C30, the EORTC QLQ-BLmi30 and the SF-12. Comparison of response to these questionnaires between women with ONB and those with IC were studied with Mann-Whitney U tests, with a statistically significant P-value set at<0.05. The primary endpoint was the "global health status" sub-score extracted from the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. The secondary endpoints were the functional sub-scores and symptoms sub-scores obtained with the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire as well as the sub-scores obtained with the EORTC QLQ-BLmi30 and the SF-12 questionnaires. RESULTS: Forty women were included in the study (17 ONB, 23 IC). The primary endpoint was comparable between the ONB and IC women (83.3 vs. 66.7 P=0.22). Similarly, no significant statistical difference could be pointed between the ONB and IC women in terms of secondary endpoints. CONCLUSION: The present study did not report any significance difference in terms of quality of life and functional outcomes between women with ONB and those with IC after pelvic exenteration for bladder cancer. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 3.

INTRODUCTION: Open radical cystectomy (ORC) is the gold standard technique for carcinologic cystectomies. Robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) was introduced in 2003 and its development is booming. OBJECTIVE: To compare ORC and RARC with totally intracorporal (IC) orthotopic neobladder (ONB) reconstruction, in terms of perioperative outcomes, morbidity, functional results and quality of life (Qol). PATIENTS AND METHODS: From February 2010 to February 2017, a French multicentric, prospective study on patients who had a RC and ONB reconstruction for bladder cancer was performed. All patients completed the following questionnaires: the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) generic (QLQ-C30) and the bladder cancer specific instruments (QLQ-BLM30). To assess urinary symptoms, patients also completed the Urinary Symptom Profile questionnaire (USP) and a three-day voiding diary. Patients were divided in two groups: ORC and RARC. RESULTS: We included 72 patients: 55 in the ORC group (76,4%) and 17 (33,6%) in the RARC group. Operative time was longer in RARC group (median 360 vs 300min; P<0.001) but length of stay was 5 days shorter (median 12 vs 17 days; P<0,05). Patients in RARC group had less blood transfusion (0 vs 23.6%; P<0.05), but a higher rate of uretero-ileal anastomosis stenosis and eventration at long term (respectively 25.5 vs 3.6% et 23 vs 2%; P<0.05). No statistical differences were found concerning quality of life items and functional results between the groups. CONCLUSION: RARC with totally IC ONB reconstruction lead to less perioperative morbidity with a reduced rate of blood transfusion and a reduced hospital length of stay. At long term, RARC could provide higher rates of uretero-ileal stenosis and eventration. RARC and ORC do not have any differences in terms of functional outcomes and Qol at long term after ONB reconstruction. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 3.

BACKGROUND: Partial nephrectomy (PN) is recommended as first-line treatment for cT1 stage kidney tumors because of a better renal function and probably a better overall survival than radical nephrectomy (RN). For larger tumors, PN has a controversial position due to lack of evidence showing good cancer control. The aim of this study was to compare the results of PN and RN in cT2a stage on overall survival and oncological results. METHOD: A retrospective international multicenter study was conducted in the frame of the French kidney cancer research network (UroCCR). We considered all patients aged≥18 years who underwent surgical treatment for localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC) stage cT2a (7.1-10cm) between 2000 and 2014. Cox and Fine-Gray models were performed to analyze overall survival (OS), cancer specific survival (CSS) and cancer-free survival (CFS). Comparison between PN and RN was realized after an adjustment by propensity score considering predefined confounding factors: age, sex, tumor size, pT stage of the TNM classification, histological type, ISUP grade, ASA score. RESULTS: A total of 267 patients were included. OS at 3 and 5 years was 93.6% and 78.7% after PN and 88.0% and 76.2% after RN, respectively. CSS at 3 and 5 years was 95.4% and 80.2% after PN and 91.0% and 85.0% after RN. No significant difference between groups was found after propensity score adjustment for OS (HR 0.87, 95% CI: 0.37-2.05, P=0.75), CSS (HR 0.52, 95% CI: 0.18-1.54, P=0.24) and CFS (HR 1.02, 95% CI: 0.50-2.09, P=0.96). CONCLUSION: PN seems equivalent to RN for OS, CSS and CFS in cT2a stage kidney tumors. The risk of recurrence is probably more related to prognostic factors than the surgical technique. The decision to perform a PN should depend on technical feasibility rather than tumor size, both to imperative and elective situation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

AIM: Management of urolithiasis has changed over the past decades. Outpatient surgery has become a major issue for healthcare systems. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of outpatient flexible ureteroscopy. METHODS: A single-center retrospective study has been conducted including all patients who underwent an outpatient flexible ureteroscopy between January 2012 and December 2013. Failure of outpatient management was defined as length of hospital stay>12 hours or readmission within 48 hours after discharge. Univariate analysis was performed to seek for predictors of failure of outpatient management. RESULTS: One hundred and fifty-seven patients who underwent a total of 174 procedures were included. They were mostly men (57.5 %), with a mean body mass index of 25.2kg/m2 (±4.3). The stones were mostly unique (64.3 %), with a mean size of 14.2mm (±11.2). Eighty patients had a double J stent preoperatively (46.5 %), and mean operative time was 64.2 minutes (±34.1). An ureteral access sheath was used in 39 procedures (22.4 %). A double J stent was left postoperatively in 103 patients (59.1 %). In total, 165 procedures (94.8 %) were performed successfully as outpatient surgery. On postoperative imaging, the stone-free rate was 69.5 %. Postoperative complications occurred in 3.4 % of cases and were mostly minor (i.e. Clavien 1-2; 83.3 %). Predictive factors of failed outpatient management were male gender (P=0.04), BMI (P=0.03), and anticoagulants intake (P=0.003). CONCLUSION: Outpatient flexible ureteroscopy for urinary stones is feasible and its low failure and complications rate may allow a wider spread of its use. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

INTRODUCTION: The surgical issues of renal transplantation (RT) after localized prostate cancer (PC) treatment and oncological outcomes after transplantation in patients on the waiting list with a history of PC were unknown. We conducted a retrospective multicentre study including all patients with PC diagnosed before the kidney transplantation. METHODS: Fifty-two patients were included from December 1993 to December 2015. The median age at diagnosis of PC was 59.8years old. RESULTS: The median PSA rate at diagnosis was 7ng/mL. Twenty-seven, Twenty-four, and one PC were respectively low, intermediate and high risk according to d'Amico classification. Forty-three patients were treated by radical prostatectomy (RP): 28 retropubic, 15 laparoscopic and 3 by a perineal approach. Eighteen patients had a lymph node dissection. Four patients were treated with external radiotherapy and 2 by brachytherapy. Eight patients underwent radiotherapy after surgery. The median time between PC treatment and RT was 35.7 months. The median operating time for the renal transplantation was 180min (IQR 150-190; min 90-max 310) with a median intraoperative bleeding of 200mL (IQR 100-290; min 50-max 2000). A history of lymphadenectomy did not significantly lengthen operative time (P=0.34). No recurrence of PC was observed after a median follow of 36months. CONCLUSION: PC discovered before RT should be treated with RP to assess the risk of recurrence and decrease waiting for a RT. If the PC is at low risk of recurrence, it seems possible to shorten the waiting time before the RT after a multidisciplinary discussion meeting. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

OBJECTIVES: To perform a state of the art about autosomal dominant polykystic kidney disease (ADPKD), management of its urological complications and end stage renal disease treatment modalities. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An exhaustive systematic review of the scientific literature was performed in the Medline database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and Embase (http://www.embase.com) using different associations of the following keywords (MESH): "autosomal dominant polykystic kidney disease", "complications", "native nephrectomy", "kidney transplantation". Publications obtained were selected based on methodology, language, date of publication (last 10 years) and relevance. Prospective and retrospective studies, in English or French, review articles; meta-analysis and guidelines were selected and analyzed. This search found 3779 articles. After reading titles and abstracts, 52 were included in the text, based on their relevance. RESULTS: ADPKD is the most inherited renal disease, leading to end stage renal disease requiring dialysis or renal transplantation in about 50% of the patients. Many urological complications (gross hematuria, cysts infection, renal pain, lithiasis) of ADPKD required urological management. The pretransplant evaluation will ask the challenging question of native nephrectomy only in case of recurrent kidney complications or large kidney not allowing graft implantation. The optimum timing for native nephrectomy will depend on many factors (dialysis or preemptive transplantation, complication severity, anuria, easy access to transplantation, potential living donor). CONCLUSION: Pretransplant management of ADPKD is challenging. A conservative strategy should be promoted to avoid anuria (and its metabolic complications) and to preserve a functioning low urinary tract and quality of life. When native nephrectomy should be performed, surgery remains the gold standard but renal arterial embolization may be a safe option due to its low morbidity.

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to report perioperative and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) in a single-center series and to evaluate the impact of the experience on perioperative outcomes. METHODS: Between March 2012 and January 2016, 41 patients underwent RARC associated with extended pelvic lymphadenectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. All RARC included were performed by a single-surgeon in one center. Perioperative and oncological datas were collected prospectively. Recurrence-free (RFS), overall (OS) and cancer-specific survivals (CSS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier Method. The impact of the experience on perioperative data was estimated using Spearman's correlation test. RESULTS: Mean age was 67,7years (±10.6). Most patients underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (73.2%). Mean operative time and mean estimated blood loss were respectively 319.5minutes (±85.3) and 662.5mL (±360.9). Eight patients needed perioperative blood transfusion (19.5%). Conversion to open surgery was necessary in 3 cases (7.3%). Ileal neobladder was performed in 26.8% of the cases (54.5% being performed intracorporeal), and non-continent urinary diversion in 73.2%. Mean nodal yield was 17.7 (±9.3). Positive surgical margins were observed in 1 patient (2.3%). Mean length of stay was 13.2 days (±9.8). Postoperative complication rate was 46,3%. After a median follow-up of 16months, estimated 2 year-OS and CSS were respectively 62 and 76.1%. Estimated 2-year RFS was 67.6%. Perioperative outcomes improved with experience with a significant decrease in operative time (P=0.04) and a significant increase of nodal yield (P=0.05). CONCLUSION: In this single-center prospective study, satisfactory perioperative and oncological outcomes after RARC were observed despite the learning curve. Perioperative outcomes improved with surgeon's experience. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of the acquisition of a Da Vinci® robot on the use and outcomes of partial nephrectomy (PN). PATIENTS AND METHODS: It was a single center retrospective study including 280 patients who underwent PN from January 2006 to May 2013. The number of PN, tumors and patients' characteristics and perioperative outcomes have been assessed over 3 periods defined according to the main surgical approach: 2006-2008 (open PN), 2008-2010 (laparoscopic PN) and 2010-2013 (robotic PN). RESULTS: Over the study period, the surgical approach has changed significantly in favor of minimally-invasive surgery and especially robotic approach. The PN/nephrectomy rate has also evolved to a higher proportion of PN over radical nephrectomy (P=0.002). No significant difference was noted between the three periods in terms of tumor size but there was a higher rate of highly complex tumors (RENAL score≥10) during the last period (10.7%; 18.6% and 33.2%; P=0.04). Warm ischemia time increased from 2006-2008 to 2008-2010 (26 vs. 23minutes) but decreased thereafter during the robotic era (14.5minutes; P<0.001). Regarding postoperative outcomes, the only change was a decreased length of stay over time (P=0.003). CONCLUSION: In this single center series, the robotic approach was associated with a spread of PN and with an improvement of nephron-sparing surgery outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.
