Purpose The role of robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) is becoming increasingly prevalent in
managing small renal masses. Renal functional outcomes have been reported with relation …

Abstract Background and Purpose: To assess the safety of omitting cortical renorrhaphy
during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and measure preliminary functional outcomes …

This study aimed to create and validate a predictive model for renal function following live
kidney donation, using pre-donation factors. Accurately predicting remaining renal function …

Living kidney donor evaluation commonly includes nuclear renography to assess split
kidney function and computed tomography (CT) scan to evaluate anatomy. To streamline …

Background Previous studies have shown that kidney volume enhances the estimation of
glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in kidney donors. This study aimed to describe the …

Introduction: To assess whether volumetric measurements can differentiate functional
changes between reconstructive techniques after partial nephrectomy. Materials and …

Background Selecting the smaller kidney for donation has been advocated if there is a size
difference of> 10% between the 2 kidneys but has never been prospectively evaluated. With …

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of computed tomography‐based measurement
of renal cortical volume and split renal volume as a single tool to assess the anatomy and …

Objective We aimed to evaluate the performance of various GFR estimates compared with
direct measurement of GFR (dGFR). We also sought to create a new formula for volume …

Background Accurate prediction of post-donor nephrectomy (DN) glomerular filtration rate is
potentially useful for evaluating and counselling living kidney donors. Currently, there are …
