Excised Parenchymal Mass During Partial Nephrectomy: Functional Implications
To evaluate whether excised parenchymal mass (EPM) during partial nephrectomy (PN) correlates with functional decline and can serve as a surrogate for functional outcomes.Functional Implications of Renal Tumor Enucleation Relative to Standard Partial Nephrectomy
To compare the surgical precision for optimizing nephron-mass preservation of tumor enucleation (TE) vs standard partial nephrectomy (SPN), with primary focus on functional outcomes. TE is presumed to optimize preservation of parenchymal mass and function but this has not yet been rigorously studied and quantified.
