Tumor rupture during robotic kidney surgery
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at what happens when a kidney tumor breaks during robotic partial nephrectomy, a surgery to remove the tumor while saving the rest of the kidney. It aims to understand the impact of this event and may help guide future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a robotic partial nephrectomy (a type of kidney-sparing surgery using a robot).
- During that surgery, the tumor broke or tore, possibly spilling some tissue.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You agree to take part in the study.
- You did not have the whole kidney removed, and you did not have open or standard laparoscopic surgery.

This trial compares different robotic platforms used to remove kidney tumors while saving healthy kidney tissue. It aims to see which system works best for patients with localized kidney tumors.
This trial is testing whether robot-assisted surgery can be a safe and effective way to treat early-stage prostate or kidney cancer. If you are eligible, it could give you access to a less invasive surgical option.
This study compares two types of robot-assisted surgery for treating prostate or kidney cancer. It aims to see if a single-port approach (through one small incision) is as safe and effective as the standard multi-port approach (through several small incisions), potentially offering faster recovery and less pain.
This study follows people with kidney cancer who are scheduled for surgery to remove their tumor. It aims to learn more about the disease and how it behaves over time.
This study compares two ways of positioning patients during robotic kidney surgery to remove a tumor. The goal is to see which position leads to better outcomes, like less pain or faster recovery.
This trial tests a new robotic system for removing kidney tumors up to 7 cm. It aims to see if the technology helps surgeons perform partial nephrectomy (removing only the tumor) safely and effectively.
