Robotic Partial Nephrectomy: Update on Techniques.

Surgical techniques for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy are driven by the aims of simplifying the most challenging surgical steps, maximizing functional and oncologic outcomes, and consistently pushing the envelope on possibilities. Over the past several years, we have seen an emergence in not only innovation in surgical technique, and robotic platforms, but integration of a variety of imaging techniques. We believe with developing robotic expertise, practicing urologists will continue to push the envelope in nephron preservation and complication-free recovery.
