Patients and Methods We retrospectively reviewed the charts of patients with ADPKD who underwent PNL from August 2011 to December 2019. A total of 56 patients were included in this study; all procedures were completed by the total US-guided technique. Demographic characteristics, operative parameters, and postoperative data were collected and analyzed. Results Effective renal access was achieved in all patients. The mean stone size was 3.1 cm (range 1.7-6.5 cm). The initial stone-free rate was 70.6% (36/51); five patients underwent second-look PNL to remove residual stones. The other patients underwent oral medication therapy. No severe intraoperative complications occurred; one patient received selective embolization for bleeding on the contralateral side and one patient needed percutaneous drainage for perinephric abscess. Clavien I or II complications were seen in nine patients. Renal function was improved or stable in most patients; the condition of only one patient deteriorated after surgery. Conclusion Total US-guided PNL is a safe and efficient treatment for kidney stones in patients with ADPKD; perioperative renal function was not adversely affected and complications were acceptable compared with patients in the general population.Objectives To evaluate the outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in cystic renal tumors. Materials and Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent RAPN for either cystic (n = 46) or solid (n = 271) renal tumors at Fujita Health University between 2010 and 2019. Cystic renal tumors were diagnosed using cross-sectional imaging. Perioperative, oncologic, and functional outcomes were assessed.
