Effective and safe implementation of robot-assisted donor nephrectomy by experienced laparoscopic surgeons. World J Surg 2024; 48:1958-1966. [PMID: 38877383 DOI: 10.1002/wjs.12249] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In June 2021, the first robot-assisted donor nephrectomy (RADN) was performed at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC), the Netherlands. The goal of this study was to investigate whether this procedure has been implemented safely and efficiently. METHODS RADN was retrospectively compared to laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) performed during the same time period (June 2021 until November 2022). Patients were assigned to RADN depending on the availability of the da Vinci robot and surgical team. The studied endpoints were postoperative complications, operative time, estimated blood loss, warm ischemic time (WIT), and postoperative pain experience. For analysis, the Student's t-test and Chi-squared test were used for, respectively, continuous and categorical data. RESULTS Forty RADN were compared to 63 LDN. Total insufflation time was significantly longer in RADN compared to LDN (188 min (169-214) versus 172 min (144-194); p = 0.02). Additionally, WIT was also found to be significantly higher in the robot-assisted group (04:54 min vs. 04:07 min; p < 0.01). No statistical differences were found in postoperative outcomes (eGFR of the recipient at 3-month follow-up, RADN 54.08 mL/min ±18.79 vs. LDN 56.41 mL/min ±16.82; p = 0.52), pain experience, and complication rate. CONCLUSION RADN was safely and efficiently implemented at the LUMC. It's results were not inferior to laparoscopic donor nephrectomy. Operative time and warm ischemic times were longer in RADN. This may relate to a learning curve effect. No clinically relevant effect on postoperative outcomes was observed.

Abstract
The use of robots in donor nephrectomy has increased in recent years. However, whether robot-assisted methods have better outcomes than traditional laparoscopic methods and how surgical experience influences these outcomes remains unclear. This meta-analysis compares the outcomes of robot-assisted donor nephrectomy (RADN) with those of laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) and to investigate the effects of surgical experience on these outcomes. A systematic literature search was conducted in Medline (through PubMed) and Web of Science databases. Perioperative data were extracted for meta-analysis. To assess the impact of the learning curve, a subgroup analysis was performed to compare outcomes between inexperienced and experienced surgeons. Seventeen studies with 6970 donors were included. Blood loss was lower (mean difference [MD] = - 13.28, p < 0.01) and the warm ischemia time was shorter (MD = - 0.13, p < 0.05) in the LDN group than the RADN group. There were no significant differences in terms of conversion to open surgery, operation time, surgical complications, hospital stay, costs, and delayed graft function between the groups. Subgroup analysis revealed that operation time (MD = - 1.09, p < 0.01) and length of hospital stay (MD = - 1.54, p < 0.05) were shorter and the rate of conversion to open surgery (odds ratios [OR] = 0.14, p < 0.0001) and overall surgical complications (OR = 0.23, p < 0.05) were lower in experienced RADN surgeons than in experienced LDN surgeons. Surgical experience enhances the perioperative outcomes following RADN more than it does following LDN. This suggests that RADN could be the method of choice for living donor nephrectomy as soon as surgeons gain sufficient experience in robotic surgery.

Complications after partial nephrectomy: robotics overcomes open surgery and laparoscopy: the PMSI French national database. BMC Urol 2023; 23:146. [PMID: 37715175 PMCID: PMC10502976 DOI: 10.1186/s12894-023-01322-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate three partial nephrectomies (PN) procedures: open (OPN), standard laparoscopy (LPN), and robot-assisted laparoscopy (RAPN), for the risk of initial complications and rehospitalization for two years after the surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS From the French national hospital database (PMSI-MCO), every hospitalization in French hospitals for renal tumor PN in 2016-2017 were extracted. Complications were documented from the initial hospitalization and any rehospitalization over two years. Chi-square and ANOVA tests compared the frequency of complications and length of initial hospitalization between the three surgical procedures. Relative risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals were computed. RESULTS The 9119 initial hospitalizations included 4035 OPN, 1709 LPN, and 1900 RAPN; 1475 were excluded as the laparoscopic procedure performed was not determined. The average length of hospitalization was 8.1, 6.2, and 4.5 days for OPN, LPN, and RAPN, respectively. Compared to OPN, there were fewer complications at the time of initial hospitalization for the mini-invasive procedures: 29% for OPN vs. 20% for LPN (0.70 [0.63;0.78]) and 12% for RAPN (RR=0.43, 95%CI [0.38;0.49]). For RAPN compared to LPN, there were fewer haemorrhages (RR=0.55 [0.43;0.72]), anemia (0.69 {0.48;0.98]), and sepsis (0.51 [0.36;0.71]); during follow up, there were fewer urinary tract infections (0.64 [0.45;0.91]) but more infectious lung diseases (1.69 [1.03;2.76]). Over the two-year postoperative period, RAPN was associated with fewer acute renal failures (RR=0.73 [0.55;0.98]), renal abscesses (0.41 [0.23;0.74]), parietal complications (0.69 [0.52;0.92]) and urinary tract infections (0.54 [0.40;0.73]) than for OPN. CONCLUSIONS Conservative renal surgery is associated with postoperative morbidity related to the surgical procedure fashion. Mini-invasive procedures, especially robot-assisted surgery, had fewer complications and shorter hospital lengths of stay.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) represents the gold-standard technique for kidney living donation, robotic donor nephrectomy (RDN) settled as another appealing minimally invasive technique over the past decades. A comparison between LDN and RDN outcomes was performed. METHODS RDN and LDN outcomes were compared, focusing on operative time and perioperative risk factors affecting surgery duration. Learning curves for both techniques were compared through spline regression and cumulative sum models. RESULTS The study analyzed 512 procedures (154 RDN and 358 LDN procedures) performed between 2010 and 2021 in 2 different high-volume transplant centers. The RDN group presented a higher prevalence of arterial variations (36.2 versus 22.4%; P = 0.001) compared with the LDN cohort. No open conversions occurred; operative time (210 versus 195 min; P = 0.011) and warm ischemia time (WIT; 230 versus 180 s; P < 0.001) were longer in RDN. Postoperative complication rate was similar (8.4% versus 11.5%; P = 0.49); the RDN group showed shorter hospital stay (4 versus 5 d; P < 0.001). Spline regression models depicted a faster learning curve in the RDN group ( P = 0.0002). Accordingly, cumulative sum analysis highlighted a turning point after about 50 procedures among the RDN cohort and after about 100 procedures among the LDN group.Higher body mass index resulted as an independent risk factor for longer operative time for both techniques; multiple arteries significantly prolonged operative time in LDN, whereas RDN was longer in right kidney procurements; both procedures were equally shortened by growing surgical experience. CONCLUSIONS RDN grants a faster learning curve and improves multiple vessel handling. Incidence of postoperative complications was low for both techniques.

Two- and three-dimensional laparoscopic donor nephrectomy: a comparative study of a single-center experience. KOREAN JOURNAL OF TRANSPLANTATION 2022; 36:104-110. [PMID: 35919198 PMCID: PMC9296978 DOI: 10.4285/kjt.22.0003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Revised: 04/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This is the first report on three-dimensional (3D) laparoscopic donor nephrectomy performed in the Central Asian region and Commonwealth of Independent States countries. This study presents the results of our initial experiences of 3D hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (3D-HALDN) in comparison with the outcomes of two-dimensional hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (2D-HALDN) at a single center. Methods From 2015 to 2019, 19 3D-HALDN and 19 2D-HALDN procedures were performed at the same center by two surgeons. All 38 procedures used identical techniques. Between-group differences were considered statistically significant at P<0.05. Results The baseline characteristics in both groups were statistically comparable (P>0.05). All donors underwent left nephrectomy. Donors who underwent 3D-HALDN had better outcomes than those who underwent 2D-HALDN, as shown by a shorter warm ischemic time (P<0.05), a shorter operative time (P<0.05), and less blood loss (P<0.05). There were no conversions or major complications (according to the Clavien-Dindo classification) in either group. The average drainage duration and postoperative hospitalization were significantly shorter in the 3D-HALDN group (P<0.05). The between-group differences in the mean postoperative creatinine level and glomerular filtration rate were not significant. Conclusions The 3D-HALDN approach is more beneficial than traditional 2D-HALDN by providing a shorter warm ischemic time, less blood loss, and shorter durations of drainage and postoperative hospitalization. Postoperative complications and the functional condition of the kidney in donors in the early and late postoperative periods did not depend on the type of laparoscopic donor nephrectomy.

Abstract
Minimally invasive donor nephrectomy has become the standard procedure in most transplant centres over the past two decades and has contributed to a reduction in postoperative morbidity for the donor. Robot-assisted technology is an alternative to conventional (hand-assisted) laparoscopic technology and will find increasing use in the future. In this review article, we address technical aspects of robotic-assisted donor nephrectomy, in accordance with our own experience and will provide an overview of the currently available literature. Robot-assisted living kidney donation is a safe procedure with a very low postoperative complication rate. The procedure offers advantages over the open surgical technique with respect to the reduction in the postoperative need for analgesia and the duration of hospital stay, with longer operating times and warm ischemia times, but without a measurable effect on transplant function. The postoperative outcome parameters are comparable to those of the laparoscopic technique, indicating a further acceleration of postoperative convalescence. The advantages of robot-assisted technology, due to the better exposure options, are most relevant in patients with a high BMI and multiple renal arteries, as well as in right-sided nephrectomies in which a longer transplant artery can be obtained. Robot-assisted living kidney donation will play a major role in the future of transplant surgery and is a serious alternative to conventional laparoscopic technology.

Abstract
With the rapid expansion of robotic platforms in urology, there is an urgent and unmet need to review its cost and benefits in comparison to the traditional laparoscopy, especially in reference to a developing country. A nonsystematic review of the literature was conducted to compare the outcomes of pure laparoscopic and robot-assisted urologic procedures. Available literature over the past 30 years was reviewed. Robot-assisted surgery and laparoscopy were found to have similar outcomes in the areas of radical prostatectomy, partial and radical nephrectomy, radical cystectomy, retroperitoneal lymph node (LN) dissection, inguinal LN dissection, donor nephrectomy, and kidney transplantation. Robot-assisted surgery was found to be significantly costlier than pure laparoscopy. In the absence of a clear advantage of robot-assisted surgery over pure laparoscopy, lack of widespread availability and the currently prohibitive cost of robotic technology, laparoscopic urological surgery has a definite role in the developing world.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bilateral native nephrectomies are needed in ESRD patients with select indications in a pre-transplant setting. Yet, the perioperative morbidity is significant in this population. Herein we evaluate the efficacy and utility of r-SABN. METHOD A total of 12 patients were consented at a single center. Of 12 patients, 3 patients did not meet study criteria and were excluded. Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative data were prospectively collected from 9 patients from electronic health records and administered postoperative surveys. Patients were assessed at 30-180 days postoperatively for follow-up. RESULTS Mean operative time was 204.3 ± 59.7 min (142.0-314.0) and estimated blood loss during operation was 94.4 ± 87.3 ml (25.0-300.0). The mean length of hospital stay was 2 ± 0.7 days (1-3) for all patients. Total post-operative opioid usage was normalized to morphine dose equivalents (MDE) and calculated to be 56.1 ± 30.4 mg (30.8-101.8). Patients experienced a fourfold and tenfold respective increase in weekly structural and incidental physical activity from 30 to 180 days postoperatively. There were no procedure related intraoperative or postoperative complications reported in the cohort. CONCLUSION Overall, r-SABN afforded the patients low morbidity. Longitudinal studies are in progress to further assess the efficacy and outcome of this procedure. In a single-center study, we demonstrate r-SABN is viable and provides a novel tool for treatment of ESRD patients requiring this procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the outcomes of continent urinary diversion according to the Mitrofanoff principle by robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery in terms of continence, catheterization and repeat surgery. METHODS All adult patients who underwent procedures for continent urinary diversion via a robot-assisted laparoscopic route between October 2014 and November 2018 were enrolled retrospectively. Abdominal continence and clean intermittent catheterization ability were noted, as well as patient characteristics, details of the technique, intra- and perioperative parameters, and complications. RESULTS Ten patients were included. Bladder-sphincter disorders were due to neurological causes in nine patients, and one patient had idiopathic bladder sphincter dyssynergia. A continent catheterizable channel was created using the appendix in six cases and the ileum in four cases. The median operative duration was 245 min (IQR 228-370). Two patients had a Clavien 3 complication requiring laparoscopy to separately drain a haematoma and a pelvic abscess. The median follow-up was 21 months (IQR 17-27). Abdominal continence without further intervention was obtained in 6/10 patients (60%). Two patients needed an open revision of the continent urinary diversion, one required injection of Deflux® and one an intradetrusorian injection of botulinum toxin type A (Botox®). Further surgery was needed for two patients to improve urethral continence. At the end of follow-up, all patients were continent and clean intermittent catheterization was possible. CONCLUSION Continent urinary diversion performed according to the Mitrofanoff principle is possible via a robot-assisted laparoscopic route and yields good outcomes on abdominal continence in the short term in patients with clean intermittent catheterization ability.

Abstract
La nefrectomía laparoscópica en donante vivo es la mejor opción en el proceso del trasplante para pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica en estadio cuatro y cinco. El objetivo del artículo es describir la experiencia en el programa de donante vivo de riñón entre el 2013 y el 2018 en Colombiana de Trasplantes en la costa Caribe colombiana. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo que incluyó una muestra consecutiva de 55 donantes vivos de riñón operados por Colombiana de Trasplantes, entre enero de 2013 y enero de 2018; se llevó a cabo el análisis estadístico de las variables relevantes. La media de la edad fue de 41 años. El 57,4% de los donantes fueron mujeres. El tiempo de cirugía tuvo una media de 1,9 horas. Ninguno de los pacientes falleció en el seguimiento a los seis meses y el promedio de la estancia hospitalaria posterior a la cirugía fue de dos días. Las variables relevantes y los desenlaces de los pacientes son similares a los de otros grupos de trasplantes, sin embargo, hay características específicas que pueden ayudar a mejorar las estrategias en salud en la costa Caribe colombiana.
