Partial nephrectomy is a major surgery, and it doesn't matter what the procedure is, whether it's open or laparoscopic. The size of an operation isn't just the size of the operation, the length of the operation, but also the serious complications that may occur after the operation, and all of the above threats to personal health and safety. Partial nephrectomy is a reconstructive surgery, which involves separating the arteries and veins of the kidney, then blocking the arteries, removing the diseased part of the kidney, and finally closing the damaged part of the kidney with needles and needles. Finally, open the blood vessels and observe whether there is active bleeding at the suture site. If there is, strengthen the suture. After the operation, the patient should stay in bed for many days, because the biggest complication after the operation is bleeding. If the suture bleeds again, interventional embolization or even reoperation may be required.
