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].”

(2010, unknown): “…systems such as the Preoperative Aspects and Dimensions Used for an Anatomical (PADUA) classification system, the RENAL nephrometry score, and the C-index have been proposed to standardise the description of renal tumours and aid in comparing nephron-sparing treatment strategies [39] [40] [41].”

The state of the art in kidney and kidney tumor segmentation in contrast-enhanced CT imaging: Results of the KiTS19 challenge (2019, background): “A number of manual scoring systems, termed nephrometry scores, have been proposed for this purpose (Ku-tikov and Uzzo, 2009; Ficarra et al., 2009; Simmons et al., 2010), but they have seen limited adoption due to the signiﬁcant manual e ﬀ ort they require (Simmons et al., 2012), the interobserver…”
