Abstract
Objective
To investigate the impact of selective artery clamping (SAC) and main artery clamping (MAC) during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) on renal function and the influence of holographic three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of renal segments on the selection between SAC and MAC.
Methods
This retrospective observational study included patients who underwent RAPN at First Hospital Affiliated to the Army Medical University between December 2016 and July 2022. According to the clamping methods, the patients were divided into the SAC group and the MAC group. The primary outcome was renal function.
Results
A total of 422 patients (194 in the SAC group and 228 in the MAC group) were included. The RAPN procedures were all completed successfully. The patients in SAC group had less glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decline in the affected kidney (8.6 ± 7.0 ml/min vs. 18.7 ± 10.9 ml/min, P < 0.001) and minor estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decrease (4.3 ± 10.5 ml/min vs. 12.6 ± 12.1 ml/min, P < 0.001) than those in MAC group. Among 37 patients with baseline renal insufficiency, the GFR decline of the affected kidney in the SAC subgroup was significantly lower than in the MAC subgroup (5.5 ± 6.5 ml/min vs. 14.3 ± 9.2 ml/min, P = 0.002). The proportion of patients who underwent 3D reconstruction was significant higher in the SAC group than in the MAC group. (65.46% vs. 28.07%, P < 0.001).
Conclusion
The SAC technique during RAPN may serve as a protective measure for renal function, while the implementation of holographic 3D renal segment reconstruction technique may facilitate optimal selection of SAC.
