Laparoscopic Radical Nephrectomy for Large Renal-Cell Carcinomas
Journal of Endourology, 08/26/09
Hattori R et al. – Laparoscopic nephrectomy is feasible for localized large RCC, although intraoperative complications were more frequent. No statistically significant differences were found in either disease–free or cause–specific patient survival rates between the laparoscopy and the open groups. Laparoscopic nephrectomy can be an alternative to the open procedure for localized large RCC. However, a longer follow–up period is necessary to confirm the oncological efficacy of this procedure.
