Abstract
Objective

To assess the outcome of hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy in patients with significant complicating clinical factors.

Methods

A retrospective assessment was made of 100 laparoscopic nephrectomies performed at a single hospital from 2001 to 2005. Patients with a history of prior abdominal surgery, prior procedures on the involved kidney, evidence of perirenal inflammation, renal lesions 10cm or more in diameter, or level I renal vein thrombosis were enrolled.

Results

Twelve patients were enrolled. Of these, 5 had a lesion at least 10cm in diameter, 2 had renal vein thrombosis, and 5 reported major abdominal surgery. Most patients had more than one of these findings. Three patients showed inflammatory conditions (staghorn calculi) and a T4 renal tumor was successfully treated without conversion to open surgery. Mean operating time and blood loss were 210 minutes and 310ml respectively, while mean length of hospital stay was 3 days. No patient required conversion to open surgery.

Conclusions

Hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy is an attractive minimally invasive option for technically challenging tumors and has reasonable operating times, blood losses, and complication rates.

Resumen
Objetivo

evaluar los resultados de nefrectomía laparoscópica asistida por la mano en pacientes con masas renales técnicamente complejas.

Métodos

se ha realizado una evaluación retrospectiva de 100 nefrectomías laparoscópicas realizadas en un solo hospital entre 2001 y 2005. Se ha seleccionado a los pacientes con antecedentes de cirugía abdominal previa, procedimientos previos en el riñón afectado, evidencia de inflamación perirrenal, lesiones renales de más de 10cm de diámetro o trombosis venosa renal tipo I.

Resultados

se ha incluido un total de 12 pacientes; 5 de ellos presentaban una lesión de al menos 10cm de diámetro, dos trombosis venosa renal y 5 referían cirugía abdominal mayor. La mayoría de los pacientes tenía más de uno de estos hallazgos. Tres pacientes presentaban procesos inflamatorios (cálculos coraliformes) y un tumor renal T4 fue tratado con éxito, sin necesidad de reconversión. El tiempo operatorio y la pérdida sanguínea medias fueron de 210 minutos y 310ml, respectivamente, con una estancia media de tres días. Ningún paciente requirió reconversión a cirugía abierta.

Conclusiones

la nefrectomía laparoscópica asistida por la mano es una opción mínimamente invasiva, atractiva en el contexto de masas técnicamente complejas, con un tiempo operatorio, una pérdida sanguínea y una tasa de complicaciones razonables.
