Every minute counts when the renal hilum is clamped during partial nephrectomy. (2010, methodology): “In our multivariable analyses, we adjusted for tumor size, preoperative GFR, and surgical approach; however, we were unable to factor in recently reported scores that predict for surgical complexity [15,16].”
