Abstract
Robotic Partial Nephrectomy is a standardized robotic procedure, in which classically a small renal mass is excised or removed from the kidney. Although traditionally performed in masses less than 4 cm in size, currently these cases are also performed in solitary kidneys, large tumors, and patients with multiple tumors. The results of robotic partial nephrectomy have been similar, if not better, than open and laparoscopic surgery.
