Investigation of oncological efficacy in retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy (RRN) of patients with localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Consecutive patients undergoing RRN for localized stage pT1-3 RCC in 2 tertiary care centers in Switzerland were evaluated. Excellent long-term oncological efficacy was found. Our long-term follow-up validates the survival outcome from comparable literature after conventional open or laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.
