OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess the utility of the radius, exophytic/endophytic, nearness, anterior/posterior, location (RENAL); preoperative aspects and dimensions used for an anatomic evaluation (PADUA), and centrality index (C-index) scores for the outcomes of partial nephrectomy (PN). MATERIAL AND METHODS The patients who underwent PN with contrast-enhanced preoperative imaging from January 2015 to June 2018 were identified. The RENAL, PADUA, and C-index scores were assigned. The correlation between these scoring systems and perioperative and long-term renal functional outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 78 patients were included in the study (58 men and 20 women; age, 58±11.4 years). Median warm ischemia time (WIT), estimated blood loss (EBL), and operation time (OT) were 26 min, 115 mL, and 140 min, respectively. The RENAL score was related to WIT, EBL, and OT (p<0.001, p=0.003, and p=0.023, respectively). The PADUA score was associated with WIT, EBL, and OT (p<0.001, p=0.013, and p=0.005, respectively). The C-index score was correlated with WIT, EBL, and OT (p<0.001, p=0.010, and p=0.001, respectively). The C-index score also correlated with the percentage change in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (p=0.037). However, on univariable and multivariable regression analyses, only WIT significantly affected the postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate reduction. CONCLUSION The RENAL, PADUA, and C-index scores were significantly associated with perioperative outcomes of PN. In addition, the C-index score was correlated with long-term renal functional outcomes.
