Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the efficacy of quantitative renal volume measures on magnetic resonance urography images in predicting need for surgery among children with ureteropelvic junction obstruction and their ability to evaluate renal function. METHODS A total of 88 cases of hydronephrosis in 50 patients were collected between 1 April 2018 and 31 March 2020, including 30 operated kidney and 58 unoperated kidney cases. Clinical data were collected, and quantitative analysis of magnetic resonance urography was performed. Renal volume, hydronephrosis volume and the volume ratio of hydronephrosis (hydronephrosis volume/renal volume) were measured and calculated. We analyzed the relationships between the above indices in the two groups and compared these with renal function. RESULTS Compared with the unoperated kidney group, hydronephrosis volume, renal volume and hydronephrosis volume/renal volume of the operated kidney group increased significantly. Hydronephrosis volume (area under the curve 0.972, 95% confidence interval 0.943-1.000; P < 0.001) and hydronephrosis volume/renal volume (area under the curve 0.968, 95% confidence interval 0.939-0.998; P < 0.001) were superior to ultrasonography and renal function examination in predicting the probability of surgery, and their sensitivity values (hydronephrosis volume/renal volume: 96.67%; hydronephrosis volume: 93.33%) were higher than those of the renal function test (50%). There was a significant difference among different renal function groups in the pairwise comparison of hydronephrosis volume and hydronephrosis volume/renal volume (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Quantitative volume measures of hydronephrosis by magnetic resonance urography had a greater ability to predict need for surgery than ultrasonography and dynamic renal imaging, and it can be used as method by which to evaluate surgery. Hydronephrosis volume and hydronephrosis volume/renal volume have greater predictive ability, and play an important role in the deterioration of renal function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of slice thickness, iterative reconstruction (IR) algorithm, and kernel selection on measurement accuracy and interobserver variability for semiautomated renal cortex volumetry (RCV) with multislice computed tomography (CT). METHODS Ten patients (62.4 ± 17.2 years) undergoing abdominal biphasic multislice computed tomography were enrolled in this retrospective study. Computed tomography data sets were reconstructed at 1-, 2-, and 5-mm slice thickness with 2 different IR algorithms (iDose, IMRST) and 2 different kernels (IMRS and IMRR) (Philips, the Netherlands). Two readers independently performed semiautomated RCV for each reconstructed data set to calculate left kidney volume (LKV) and split renal function (SRF). Statistics were calculated using analysis of variance with Geisser-Greenhouse correction, followed by Tukey multiple comparisons post hoc test. Statistical significance was defined as P ≤ 0.05. RESULTS Semiautomated RCV of 120 data sets (240 kidneys) was successfully performed by both readers. Semiautomated RCV provides comparable results for LKV and SRF with 3 different slice thicknesses, 2 different IR algorithms, and 2 different kernels. Only the 1-mm slice thickness showed significant differences for LKV between IMRR and IMRS (P = 0.02, mean difference = 4.28 bb) and IMRST versus IMRS (P = 0.02, mean difference = 4.68 cm) for reader 2. Interobserver variability was low between both readers irrespective of slice thickness and reconstruction algorithm (0.82 ≥ P ≥ 0.99). CONCLUSIONS Semiautomated RCV measurements of LKV and SRF are independent of slice thickness, IR algorithm, and kernel selection. These findings suggest that comparisons between studies using different slice thicknesses and reconstruction algorithms for RCV are valid.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the utility of parenchymal volume analysis (PVA) for estimation of split renal function (SRF) in patients with renal masses. SRF is important for deciding about partial vs radical nephrectomy (PN/RN) and assessing risk for developing severe chronic kidney disease after surgery. For renal donors PVA is routinely used to estimate SRF, but the utility of PVA for the more complex renal mass population remains undefined. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients (n = 374) with renal tumours and a normal contralateral kidney managed with PN (2010-2018), with preoperative/postoperative nuclear renal scans (NRS) and cross-sectional imaging were analysed. Parenchymal volumes were measured by free-hand scripting or software analysis. Concordance between ipsilateral estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) values based on SRF from NRS vs PVA were evaluated by Pearson correlation and Bland-Altman plots. Parallel analysis of all 155 patients managed with RN at our centre (2006-2016) with preoperative NRS and imaging was also performed. RESULTS For PN, the median age and tumour size were 62 years and 3.4 cm, respectively. The median preoperative ipsilateral parenchymal volume and eGFR were 181 cm3 and 36.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 , respectively. Parenchymal volumes estimated by free-hand scripting vs software analyses correlated strongly (r = 0.98, P < 0.001). Preoperative ipsilateral eGFR based on SRF from PVA vs NRS also correlated strongly (r = 0.94, P < 0.001). Ipsilateral eGFR saved after PN correlated strongly with parenchymal volume preserved (all r >0.60); however, the correlation was much stronger when ipsilateral eGFRs were based on SRF from PVA rather than NRS (z-statistic = 3.15, P = 0.002). For RN patients, preoperative eGFR in the contralateral kidney based on SRF from PVA vs NRS also correlated strongly (r = 0.87, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION PVA has utility for estimation of SRF in patients with renal masses, even though this population is older and more comorbid than renal donors and the tumour can complicate the analysis. PVA can be obtained by software analysis from preoperative cross-sectional imaging and thus readily incorporated into routine clinical practice.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Can J Kidney Health Dis 2019; 6:2054358119875459. [PMID: 31555456 PMCID: PMC6753513 DOI: 10.1177/2054358119875459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2019] [Accepted: 07/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: As part of their living kidney donor assessment, all living donor candidates
complete a computed tomography (CT) angiogram, but some also receive a
nuclear renogram for split renal function (SRF%). Objective: We considered whether split renal volume (SRV%) assessed by CT can predict
SRF%. Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis. Setting: Living donor candidates undergoing evaluation as potential living kidney
donors. Patients: Living donor candidates who received both a nuclear renogram for split
function and CT for SRV as part of their living donor work-up. Measurements: Split renal volume from CT scans and SRF from nuclear renography. Methods: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature,
abstracting data and digitizing plots where possible. We searched Medline,
EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. We added data from donor candidates
assessed in London, Ontario from 2013 to 2016. We used fixed and
random-effects models to pool Fisher’s z-transformed
Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r). We conducted
random-effects meta-regression on digitized and aggregate data. Studies were
restricted to living kidney donors or living donor candidates. Results: After pooling 19 studies (n = 1479), we obtained a pooled correlation of
r = 0.74 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.61-0.82). By
linear regression using individual-level data, we observed a 0.76% (95% CI =
0.71-0.81) increase in SRF% for every 1% increase in SRV%. Split renal
volume had a specificity of 88% for discriminating SRF at a threshold that
could influence the decision of which kidney is to be removed
(between-kidney difference ≥10%). Predonation SRV and SRF both moderately
predicted kidney function 6 to 12 months after donation: r
= 0.75 for SRV and r = 0.73 for SRF; Δr =
0.05 (–0.02, 0.13). Limitations: Most studies were retrospective and measured SRV and SRF only on selected
living donor candidates. Efficiency gains in removing the SRF from the
evaluation will depend on the transplant program. Conclusion: Split renal volume has the potential to replace SRF for some candidates.
However, it is uncertain whether it can do so reliably and routinely across
different transplant centers. The impact on clinical decision-making needs
to be assessed in well-designed prospective studies. Trial registration: The digitized data are registered with Mendeley Data
(doi10.17632/dyn2bfgxxj.2).

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the renal cortical volume (RCV) change after nephron sparing surgery and the predictive value of the nephrometry score in RCV preservation after partial nephrectomy. Materials and methods: Overall, 162 patients with renal tumors that were treated with open partial nephrectomy were retrospectively analyzed. The contact surface area (CSA), RENAL, PADUA and C-index scores were obtained from a preoperative CT scan. The RCV of the tumor-bearing kidney was measured preoperatively and postoperatively using dedicated software. The correlation between the four nephrometry scores and perioperative parameters were evaluated and the scores were compared in terms of their ability to predict a reduction in the RCV. Results: All scores showed a significant association with reduction in RCV (all p < 0.001), percent reduction in RCV (all p < 0.001) and estimated blood loss (all p < 0.05). Only the CSA and PADUA scores showed a significant association with percent reduction in eGFR (p = 0.038 and p = 0.026, respectively). On multivariate analysis, the CSA, PADUA and C-index scores independently affected the percent reduction in RCV (p = 0.003, p = 0.025 and p = 0.013, respectively). On ROC curve analysis, CSA was a better independent predictor of a greater than 10% and 20% reduction in the RCV (AUC 0.87 and 0.72, respectively). Conclusion: CT-based RCV measurement successfully differentiated the RCV change after partial nephrectomy. Compared to the other three nephrometry scores, CSA was a superior predictor of RCV change in the operated kidney.

Abstract
Introduction Aging is associated with a decline in kidney volume and function. The purpose of this study is to investigate a direct relationship between kidney volume and function in the elderly population and to challenge whether kidney function could be predictable by using the kidney volume. Methods We conducted a chart review of 366 patients who underwent abdominal computed tomography (CT) and renal function measurement prior to gastrointestinal surgery. The kidney volume was calculated by the ellipsoid method using a coronal section of noncontrast CT images. Results The patients were 72.2 ± 13.2 years of age, and 39.0% were female. Their average measured creatinine clearance (mCCr) was 72.0 ± 21.5 mL/min. The average kidney volume was 100.3 ± 27.6 cm3 in the right kidney and 109.3 ± 30.9 cm3 in the left. There was a significant positive correlation between the total kidney volume and mCCr. Multivariate regression analysis showed that age, diabetes mellitus, and total kidney volume were dependent variables with which to predict mCCr. The use of total kidney volume predicted mCCr of ≥50 mL/min with moderate accuracy (area under the curve = 0.782; 95% confidence interval = 0.692-0.871). Conclusions These results indicate a direct relationship between kidney volume and function in the elderly and might provide a pilot method which estimates the renal function using kidney morphology obtained from pre-existing CT images.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between postoperative renal function and resected cortex margin volume calculated by a 3-dimensional reconstruction technique based on the resected specimen, and to determine predictors of renal function after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy. METHODS A total of 114 patients underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy from 2014 to 2018. Patients without a 1 mm slice computed tomography or renal scintigraphy were excluded. We identified the margins of the tumor from each resected specimen with 2 mm margin being added as the ischemic margin. The volume of the renal cortex was calculated automatically using 3-dimensional volume analyzer software. The total margin volume was excluded from the ipsilateral cortex volume to calculate the cortex volume split. Predicted estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the change in cortex volume and then compared with the actual eGFR. RESULTS Eighty-two patients were included in this retrospective study. Sixty-six patients (80%) were cT1a. A strong correlation was observed between renal scintigraphy split and pre- and postoperative cortex volume split (Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.9330 and 0.8742, respectively). The predicted eGFR correlated strongly with post 1, 3, 6, and 12 months eGFR (r = 0.8929, 0.9294, 0.9320, and 0.8952, respectively). Preoperative relative renal function and total cortex margin volume were independent risk factors for decreasing postoperative renal function. CONCLUSION This precise volumetric assessment that includes the resected margin is an alternative to renal scintigraphy for predicting postoperative relative renal function. The healthy cortex margin volume calculated by the reconstruction technique is an independent risk factor of decreasing postoperative renal function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To validate a new procedure for the three-dimensional estimation of total renal parenchyma volumeusing a structured-light infrared laser sensor. METHODS To evaluate the accuracy of the sensor for assessing renal volume, we performed 3 experiments. Twenty freshly excised porcine kidneys were obtained. Experiment A, the water displacement method was used to obtain a determination of the renal parenchyma volume after immersing every kidney into 0.9% saline. Thereafter a structured sensor (Occipital, San Francisco, CA) was used to scan the kidney. Kidney sample surface was presented initially as a mesh and then imported into MeshLab (Visual Computing Lab, Pisa, Italy) software to obtain the surface volume. Experiment B, a partial excision of the kidney with measurement of the excised volume and remnant was performed. Experiment C, a renorrhaphy of the remnant kidney was performed then measured. Bias and limits of agreement (LOA) were determined using the Bland-Altman method. Reliability was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS Experiment A, the sensor bias was -1.95mL (LOA: -19.5 to 15.59, R2 = 0.410) with slightly overestimating the volumes. Experiment B, remnant kidney after partial excision and excised kidneyvolume were measured showing a sensor bias of -0.5mL (LOA -5.34 to 4.20, R2= 0.490) and -0.6mL (LOA: -1.97.08 to 0.77, R2 = 0.561), respectively. Experiment C, the sensor bias was -0.89mL (LOA -12.9 to 11.1, R2= 0.888). ICC was 0.9998. CONCLUSION The sensor is a reliable method for assessing total renal volume with high levels of accuracy.

Abstract
Introduction Horseshoe kidney is one of the most common congenital renal fusion anomalies. Due to its poor mobility and abnormal vasculature form, surgeons should pay close attention to all anatomical variations. Case Presentation An 83-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of left renal tumor in a horseshoe kidney incidentally found by her previous hospital. We performed laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. The pathological diagnosis was clear cell renal cell carcinoma. G2 INFα V-pT1a with a negative surgical margin. No evidence of recurrence has been noted, and the renal function is well preserved at 28 months after surgery. Conclusion When performing laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for renal carcinoma, especially a horseshoe kidney, preoperative imaging is crucial for identifying the location of the renal vessels.
