Usefulness of the mayo adhesive probability score as a predictive factor for renal function deterioration after partial nephrectomy: a retrospective case-control study

Purpose Whether the Mayo adhesive probability score, an index of the perinephric fat environment, could be a predictive factor for renal function deterioration after partial nephrectomy was investigated. Methods A retrospective case-control study of 78 patients who underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy was performed. An estimated glomerular filtration rate preservation rate at <= 90% at 3 months after surgery was defined as postoperative renal function deterioration. These patients were divided into two groups (non-deterioration and deterioration groups). Patient factors including Mayo adhesive probability scores (both tumor and unaffected sides) and surgical factors were evaluated to identify the predictors for postoperative renal function deterioration. The statistical analysis used univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results Thirty-seven (47.4%) patients had postoperative renal function deterioration after partial nephrectomy. Univariate analysis identified Mayo adhesive probability score on the unaffected side (p = 0.02), and warm ischemia time (p < 0.01) as predictors of postoperative renal function deterioration. On multivariate analyses, Mayo adhesive probability score on the unaffected side (odds ratio: 1.38 [1.05-1.79], p = 0.02) and warm ischemia time (odds ratio: 1.04 [1.01-1.07], p < 0.01) were significantly associated with postoperative renal function deterioration as same as univariate analysis. On receive operating characteristic curve analysis, Mayo adhesive probability score on the unaffected side (cutoff value 1.5; p = 0.02) and warm ischemia time (cutoff value 26.5 min; p = 0.01) were significant predictors of renal function deterioration 3 month after surgery. Conclusion The Mayo adhesive probability score on the unaffected side and warm ischemia time are useful predictors for renal function deterioration after partial nephrectomy.

Automated summary

The Mayo adhesive probability score on the unaffected side and warm ischemia time are useful predictors for renal function deterioration after partial nephrectomy.
