Predicting acute kidney injury after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: Implications for patient selection and postoperative management

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a common occurrence after partial nephrectomy and is a significant risk factor for chronic kidney disease. We aimed to create a model that predicts postoperative AKI in patients undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN).We identified 1,190 patients who underwent RAPN between 2008 and 2017 from a multicenter database. AKI was defined as a >25% reduction in eGFR from pre-RAPN to discharge. A nomogram was...
