Objective Measures of Renal Mass Anatomic Complexity Predict Rates of Major Complications Following Partial Nephrectomy

BACKGROUND: The association between tumor complexity and postoperative complications after partial nephrectomy (PN) has not been well characterized. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated whether increasing renal tumor complexity, quantitated by nephrometry score (NS), is associated with increased complication rat...
