In this podcast, UROONCO RCC associate editor Dr. Riccardo Bertolo (IT) interviews a recognised world leader in the research and treatment of kidney cancer, Prof. Ketan Badani (US), from Mount Sinai Hospital.  He answers questions on robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) after his live surgery session at ERUS23 in Florence, Italy. 

Prof. Badani elaborates on the concept of complexity in RAPN.

Another point in the discussion is the decision algorithm in counselling the patient to multi-port vs. single port robotics. 

Finally, Prof. Badani also shares some personal experience on training for the future of robotic surgery and how single-port can teach surgeons how to operate more autonomously when operating multi-port, which has historically relied on a significant bedside team/assistance.
