UROwebinar: Robotic nephron-sparing surgery: Diverse techniques for various lesions

Explore innovative robotic nephron‑sparing solutions for various lesions during this UROwebinar, which is organised by the European School of Urology and the EAU Robotic Urology Section.

Robotic nephron-sparing surgery has become a cornerstone in the management of localised renal tumours, offering excellent oncological control while maximising preservation of functional renal parenchyma. Advances in robotic technology have expanded the feasibility of partial nephrectomy across diverse tumour characteristics.

However, lesion complexity, size, location, depth, and relationship to the collecting system and renal vasculature require tailored operative strategies. No single technique is universally optimal. Instead, surgical planning should integrate tumour anatomy, patient factors, and surgeon experience to optimise safety, minimise ischemia, preserve renal function, and achieve negative surgical margins.
