In multivariate analysis, early decline was associated with age, preoperative glomerular filtration rate, parenchymal volume loss and ischemia >25 min. With respect to long-term recovery, suturing had the greatest adverse impact (β = -5.060, P 2 years after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Hemostatic sutures during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy might interfere with long-term renal function recovery irrespective of parameters that determine the initial function change. As the splitting method reduces the use of sutures, modifying these details might help preserve renal function. © 2020 The Japanese Urological Association.BACKGROUND Data correlating in vitro drug susceptibility of Microsporum canis with clinical outcomes of its infections are lacking as well as the most suitable inoculum and incubation time in broth microdilution assays. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS M. canis strains were collected from animal hosts that tested positive (Group I; n=13) and negative (Group II; n=14) to this pathogen following itraconazole (ITC) therapy. In vitro ITC susceptibility was assessed according to the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI M38-A2) methodology using conidia, hypha-conidia and arthroconidia at 3 and 7 days of incubation in order to assess the most suitable inoculum and incubation time. Successively, ketoconazole (KTC), voriconazole (VRC) terbinafine (TRB), posaconazole (PSZ), fluconazole (FLC) and griseofulvin (GRI) susceptibilities were assessed using the chosen inoculum. RESULTS The MIC values of ITC after three day-incubation were equal than those recorded after seven day-incubation. ITC MICs were ≤1μg/ml for strains from Group II and >1μg/ml for those of Group II only when conidia were used. All strains showed high susceptibility to VRC, POS, TEB and low susceptibility to ITC, KTC, GRI and FLC regardless of the source and incubation time. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE Results s
