Ischemia-reperfusion injury caused by vascular clamping contributes to the decline in glomerular filtration rate following partial nephrectomy. Ischemia is the main modifiable factor that determines postoperative kidney function, and it is likely that a harmless duration of ischemia does not exist. Each additional minute of warm ischemia increases the odds of acute renal failure, severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease. Our experience comparing partial nephrectomy with and without clamping in solitary kidneys suggests that renovascular clamping is the only statistically significant determinant of postoperative renal dysfunction. Studies comparing partial nephrectomy with and without clamping demonstrate that ischemia is associated with a risk of acute renal failure, advanced CKD, and renal replacement therapy. Oncologic outcomes and complications in partial nephrectomy without clamping are similar to those with clamping. Even in complex lesions, partial nephrectomy without vascular clamping is preferable when feasible.
