Objectives: To evaluate perioperative and functional outcomes of clampless laparoscopic tumor enucleation for completely endophytic renal tumors with the guide of intraoperative ultrasonography. Methods: We analyzed patients with clinically completely endophytic tumors, renal tumors, who underwent clampless three-dimensional (3D) retroperitoneoscopic laparoscopic tumor enucleation between January 2012 and January 2021. Patients with exophytic tumors were excluded. Intraoperative ultrasonography was used to map out the mass in all surgeries. Results: Overall, 57 patients underwent clampless 3D retroperitoneoscopic laparoscopic tumor enucleation. Mean surgical time was 131 minutes, and mean estimated blood loss was 202 mL. Mean hospital stay was 4.7 days. Major and minor postoperative complications occurred, respectively, in 3 and 10 cases. Only a patient had a positive surgical margin. One-year renal function did not differ from baseline. Conclusion: Our study showed that clampless laparoscopic enucleation guided by laparoscopic ultrasonography ensured satisfactory outcomes for completely intrarenal tumors, with excellent renal function preservation 1 year after surgery.
