BackgroundInformation from the RENAL score is limited. This study aimed to identify new parameters based on three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of preoperative enhanced computerized tomography (CT) for predicting outcomes after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RPN). Materials and methodsThe records of kidney cancer patients who underwent RPN at Tongji Hospital from March 2015 to July 2019 were reviewed. Demographic data, laboratory examinations, postoperative hospitalization time, and enhanced CT were retrospectively collected. Some tumor parameters were obtained from 3D reconstruction of CT data. The association between these predictive factors and outcomes after RPN was analyzed. ResultsA larger tumor bed area (TBA) was associated with a longer warm ischemia time (WIT) (P-value <0.001) and tumor resection time (P-value <0.001). Moreover, TBA was significantly associated with the elevation of postoperative creatinine (P-value = 0.005). TBA (P = 0.008), distance from the tumor to the first bifurcation of the renal artery (DTA) (P <0.034), and RENAL score (P = 0.005) were significantly associated with WIT in univariate logistic regression. In multivariate logistic regression, TBA (P = 0.026) and DTA (P = 0.048) were independent risk factors for prolonged WIT (over 25 min). The predictive effect of the combination of TBA, DTA, and RENAL score was higher than the predictive effect of RENAL score alone for WIT (area under curve: 0.786 versus 0.72). ConclusionTBA and DTA are independently associated with the WIT of RPN, which provides additional assessment value for the complexity of kidney cancer in RPN over the RENAL score.
