Filter by:To compare the outcome of thulium beam coagulation versus suture renorrhaphy for hemostasis of the tumor bed in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.
The frequency of kidney tumors found incidentally on imaging studies performed for unrelated reasons continues to increase leading to more surgeries and ablations for the treatment of renal masses thought to be cancer. However, about 20% of these masses are not cancerous and do not require treatment. Many cancerous kidney tumors are indolent and can be followed safely with imaging (i.e., particularly tumors <2 cm and in patients with limited life expectancy), while some tumors are both malignant and aggressive, with a higher potential to spread outside the kidney and require treatment. The purpose of this observational study is to assess the ability of Fludeoxyglucose (18F) (FDG) PET/MR to distinguish different types of kidney tumors. The investigators hypothesize that PET/MR will better show differences between aggressive and both indolent and benign kidney masses compared to the currently used radiologic scans. Participants will be selected from those who have been scheduled to receive a contrast-enhanced MRI for their regular care due to a suspicious kidney mass. Participants will have their MRI on a hybrid PET/MR scanner capable of obtaining both MRI and PET images. While they are receiving their standard of care MRI exam, patients will also receive a research FDG PET exam. Participants will have an IV placed for administration of the MRI contrast agent, just as they would if they were not taking part in the study. The same IV will be used to give the FDG radiopharmaceutical for the PET scan and furosemide (a diuretic), to help empty the bladder before the scan and help better see the kidneys on the scans. Both FDG and furosemide are FDA approved medications. Participants will have only one visit with the research team which will last ~2.5 hours and will include collection of the participant's regularly scheduled MRI. If participants undergo surgery to remove the tumor, the study will collect samples of the removed tissue for research. If participants receive a biopsy of the tumor, the study may collect an additional sample of the tumor for research. After the PET/MRI, participants will not have additional visits with the study team, but the study team may call every 6-12 months for up to 2 years to see how they are doing and ask about their health. The study team will review the medical record for any changes to their diagnosis, updates to their medical history, new scans ordered by their regular doctor, or recent lab or biopsy results.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the value of 18F-FAPI-RGD PET/CT imaging in Renal Tumor. Participants will undergo clinical evaluation and 18F-FAPI-RGD PET/CT examination.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate peri and post-operative outcomes as well as long-term survival of 3D IGRAPN compared to conventional Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy (RAPN) for moderate and highly complex renal tumors. The main questions aim to answer: - peri-operative complications - oncological safety - long term renal function Participants will be asked to do undergo 3D-IGRAPN. Researchers will compare 3D-IGRAPN to RAPN to see if peri-operative outcomes are better in the experimental group.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the novel TR approach is superior to the standard RP approach. The anticipated study outcome is a time saving of at least 30% from first skin incision to detection of the renal artery compared to the conventional RP approach, and also a better workspace perception by the operating surgeon.
Renal autotransplantation (RAT) is a method of removing a kidney from its place of origin in a patient, repairing it, and transplanting it in another location of the body, generally the iliac fossa of the same patient.RAT is a relatively new technique; the first ever RAT procedure in the US was performed in 1963. Advances in preservation and transplantation techniques have made RAT a modality that can be utilized in complex renal diseases. RAT is indicated for conditions such as renal vascular disease, nutcracker syndrome, pelvic venous congestion, pelvic trauma, refractory stone disease and, in some cases, loin pain hematuria syndrome and conventionally unresectable renal tumors. Irrespective of the excellent outcomes shown by RAT, the conventional open approach requires a large midline xiphoid-to-pubis or flank incision for donor nephrectomy with a second pelvic incision for renal transplantation into the iliac fossa.The current gold standard approach to RAT is a laparoscopic nephrectomy followed by open auto-transplantation. However, this approach still requires a large pelvic incision. Robotic technology enables us to perform more complex minimally invasive surgery. Gordon et al. performed and reported the first completely intracorporeal robotic RAT to repair a ureteral injury in 2014.
This study aim to analyze cost-effectiveness of robot-assisted surgery compared to open surgery for partial nephrectomy in the context of renal tumor. A total of 400 patients were recruited in two centers in France corresponding to Reims(n=200) and Nancy hospital center (n=200). Patients recruited in Reims are corresponding to open surgery strategy, while patients of Nancy center are corresponding to robot-assisted surgery. Costs analyzed included cost of intervention, hospital stay and complications. Effectiveness measure is corresponding to the rate of patients without acute complication at one year.
To compare safety and efficacy between open and robotic partial nephrectomy in treatment of organ confined complex renal tumors (R.E.N.A.L score more than 7) as regarding surgical results, morbidity, clinical as well as oncological and functional outcomes.
The aim of our study is to assess the long-term oncological and functional outcomes of cryoablation for T1b renal tumors, as well as such important parameters as the patient's quality of life after treatment, and to compare the results with those after partial nephrectomy.
This study evaluates novel surgical approach in treating small renal masses. Half of participants will undergo hypotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (standard of care), while the other half will undergo normotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (experimental method).
