Objective: This study aimed to compare the right and left side laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) outcomes of a single center. Materials and Methods: The outcomes of patients who underwent LDN in our clinic between 2008 and 2020 were evaluated retrospectively. Two groups were consisted according to the side of the donor kidney. The gender, age, body mass index, duration of operation, amount of bleeding, warm ischemia time, drain removal time, and duration of hospitalization and complications were compared between groups. Results: A total of 314 patients were included in the study. Sixty-six patients underwent right LDN and 248 underwent left LDN. There was no difference between groups in terms of age, duration of operation, amount of bleeding, warm ischemia time, and complications (p>0.05). However, drain removal time and duration of hospitalization were longer in the left LDN group (p<0.05). Conclusions: The right LDN had similar intraoperative outcomes with the left LDN. However, failure on meticulous dissection of the lymphatic structures during left LDN might cause chylous drainage and prolonged hospitalization time.
Purpose: This study aims to compare the results of the right and left side laparoscopic donor nefrectomy (LDN) of a single center. Tools and Methods: Results of patients with LDN in our clinic between 2008 and 2020 were evaluated retrospectively. On the side of the donor kidneys, two groups were formed. The groups compared gender, age, body mass index, the duration of the surgery, the amount of bleeding, the duration of hot scem, the duration of drain, the duration of stay at the hospital and complications. A total of 314 patients were included in the study. Sixteen patients were given right LDN and 248 patients left LDN. There was no difference between the groups in terms of age, duration of the operation, quantity of bleeding, duration of hot scem and complications (p>0.05). However, the drain withdrawal time and the stay in the hospital was found longer in the left LDN group (p<0.05). Results: The right LDN has intraoperative results similar to the left LDN. However, the absence of rigorous dissection of lymphatic structures during the left LDN may lead to slurry drainage and prolonged stay in the hospital. (SETB-2021-01-020)
