Abstract

Background

We report our experience with laparoendoscopic single-site donor nephrectomy (LESS DN).

Methods

Retrospective comparative study of data from 200 Consecutive left LESS DN (group A) compared to 205 consecutive conventional laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) (group B). Standard laparoscopic instruments were used in all patients. Right nephrectomies were excluded.

Results

From 05/2015 to 12/2017, 200 LESS DN (group A) and from 10/2011 till 04/2015, 205 LDN (group B) were performed. In group A and B, respectively, the mean operative time was 175.9 ± 24.9 versus 199.88 ± 37.06 min (p = 0.0001), the mean warm ischemia time was 5.2 ± 1.02 versus 3.64 ± 1.38 min (p = 0.0001), the mean BMI was 24.8 ± 4.5 versus 25.2 ± 4.7 kg/m², complex vascular anatomy was found in 60 (30%) and 68 (33.2%), average length of incision was 5.2 versus 7.7 cm (p = 0.001), scar satisfaction rate 8 versus 6 (p = 0.004), mean morphine equivalents 81.0 versus 70.5 mg; (p = 0.03), average timing for return to work was 42 versus 50 days; (p = 0.001). There was no conversion to open surgery in both groups. One case converted to hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy in group A. Pure LESS-DN was successfully completed in 169 patients (84.5%). In group A, due to technical difficulties, additional 1 or 2, 5-mm port(s) was added in 21 and 10 cases, respectively. Two negative explorations were performed in the first post-operative week for picture of small bowel obstruction. We had port site hernia in one donor, superficial wound infection in three donors and blood transfusion was required in two donors in group A.

Conclusions

Our experience with LESS-DN is encouraging. LESSDN can be integrated as a standard approach for renal donation without additional donor risk. Moreover, LESS DN gives more flexibility by possibility to add one or more 5-mm ports in case of technical difficulties.
