Horseshoe kidney is one of the most common congenital renal fusion anomalies and the incidence of renal cell carcinoma in horseshoe kidney is predicted to be approximately 5.2/100000 individuals. Because horseshoe kidney merges malformations and vascular changes, open surgery is the standard for treatment. There are no reports of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for renal cell carcinoma in horseshoe kidney. We describe for the first time the safety and the utility of RAPN in a horseshoe kidney with renal cell carcinoma.
马蹄肾是最常见的先天性肾融合异常之一,据预测马蹄肾中肾细胞癌的发病率约为每10万人中有5.2例。由于马蹄肾合并有畸形和血管改变,开放手术是治疗的标准方法。目前尚无关于马蹄肾肾细胞癌机器人辅助部分肾切除术(RAPN)的报道。我们首次描述了RAPN在马蹄肾合并肾细胞癌中的安全性和实用性。
