Partial nephrectomy is standard-of-care treatment for small renal masses. As utilization of partial nephrectomy increases and includes larger and complex tumors, the risk of conversion to radical nephrectomy likely increases. We evaluated incidence and reason for conversion to radical nephrectomy in patients scheduled for partial nephrectomy by surgeons participating in MUSIC (the Michigan Urologic Surgery Improvement Collaborative).

从机器人肾部分切除术转换为根治性肾切除术最常见的原因是解剖学​​和肿瘤学的复杂性。

肾部分切除术是小肾脏肿块的标准治疗方法。随着肾部分切除术的使用增加并包括更大和复杂的肿瘤，转换为根治性肾切除术的风险可能会增加。我们评估了参与 MUSIC（密歇根泌尿外科改进合作组织）的外科医生计划进行部分肾切除术的患者中转为根治性肾切除术的发生率和原因。
