Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (9)

  • Intraoperative Warm Ischemia time (WIT) in minutes (time of renal artery clamping).

    Started once renal artery clamped before tumor enucleation till release of the clamp after 1st layer renorraphy in group 1 or Thulium beam coagulation in group 2

    during the surgery

  • Suture time and operative time in minutes

    Suture time starts from the first suture to the last one, including time of manipulating needles.

    during the surgery

  • Intraoperative number of sutures for renorraphy

    which is the count of each time the needle comes out from the renal parenchyma.

    during the surgery

  • Intraoperative Blood loss

    Blood loss will be calculated from the suction jar minus the amount of fluid irrigation

    during the surgery

  • Blood transfusion rate

    Amount of blood in ml transfused intraoperative or postoperative

    perioperatively

  • Renal function: serum creatinine

    will be estimated by serum creatinine. Chronic kidney disease (CKD): will be staged according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines to reflect the change of renal function

    3 months

  • Renal function: estimated GFR (eGFR)

    ill be estimated by estimated GFR (eGFR) using Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation (Levey et al., 2006). Chronic kidney disease (CKD): will be staged according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines to reflect the change of renal function

    3 months

  • Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) urine level

    will be measured in urine to indicate the fibrogenic process that occurs in renal parenchyma after PN

    pre-surgery, at 24 hours and at 1 month

  • Monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP-1) urine level

    will be measured in urine to indicate the fibrogenic process that occurs in renal parenchyma after PN

    pre-surgery, at 24 hours and at 1 month

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Hospital stay

    perioperatively

  • Post operative pain

    perioperatively

Study Arms (2)

suture renorrhaphy group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

involves cases of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy done with suture renorrhaphy only for hemostasis of the tumor bed.

Procedure: Suture renorrhaphy only for hemostasis of the tumor bed in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy

thulium beam coagulation group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

involves cases of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy with thulium beam coagulation and suture renorrhaphy for hemostasis of the tumor bed

Procedure: Thulium beam coagulation and suture renorrhaphy for hemostasis of the tumor bed in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy

Interventions

Suture renorrhaphy will be used in 2 layers; medullary and cortical, with Vicry 2/0 or 3/0 and secured with V-lock. Early unclamping will be done after hemostasis of the medullary layer. Renorrhaphy of the cortical layer will be continued after that.

suture renorrhaphy group

A 2-μm continuous thulium laser with 365 μm laser fiber at 30-40 W will be used for coagulation of the tumor bed. Large vessels that may not be completely sealed with thulium beam will be closed by V-lock to achieve safe and stable hemostasis. Early unclamping will be done after hemostasis of the tumor bed. Suture renorrhaphy will be used in 1 layer to approximate the renal parenchyma.
