Abstract
Since its introduction in 2004 by Gettman and colleagues [1], robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) has been steadily gaining acceptance as part of a new standard of care for the treatment of localized renal malignancy. However, this rise to prominence has not been without its share of difficulties.
