(Objectives) Recently, partial nephrectomy has been recommended for patients with T1 renal cell carcinoma to preserve renal function. In this study, we retrospectively investigated the factors that affect renal function after laparoscopic or robotic partial nephrectomy using cold or warm ischemia. (Patients and methods) We reviewed 105 patients who underwent laparoscopic or robotic partial nephrectomy between March 2006 and July 2016. Patients who had a single kidney were excluded. Thirty-nine patients were managed with cold ischemia, and 66 were managed with warm ischemia. Renal function was assessed using the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) categories of the stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). (Results) In the cold and warm ischemia groups, the duration of ischemia was significantly correlated with deterioration of the eGFR at 12 months postoperatively, but the duration of ischemia was not significantly correlated with exacerbation of the GFR categories for the stage of CKD in multivariate analyses. (Conclusions) These results suggest that the ischemia time may not have an impact on prognosis. However, due to the lack of deaths from renal carcinoma or cardiovascular events postoperatively in this study, the influence of each factor on overall survival or cardiovascular events could not be evaluated. More investigations are necessary to discern the acceptable level of deterioration and the corresponding clinical implications for postoperative eGFR.
