Abstract
Nephron-sparing surgery is increasingly being used to treat patients with solid renal tumors in both adults and children. A contemporary review of the indications, techniques and outcomes is presented for nephron-sparing approaches to primary renal tumors during childhood. Additionally, this review addresses current evidence on the potential risk of renal dysfunction carried by nephrectomized children in the setting of a normally functioning contralateral kidney.
