Statistically significant predictors of SP-RPN included a lower comorbidity profile, a significant abdominal surgical history as characterized by a higher Hostile Abdomen Index, as well as tumors of lower complexity. The nomogram generated using the aforementioned variables demonstrated a reasonable performance with an area under the curve of 0.79. An optimal cutoff point was determined, with likelihood ratios above 0.12 indicating a preference for SP-RPN. Of note, all SP-RPN cases that scored above the 0.12 cutoff exhibited improved perioperative outcomes, including shorter ischemia time and less intraoperative blood loss. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> In this study, we have devised a novel patient selection nomogram aimed at enhancing clinical decision-making within the expanding repertoire of RPN approaches. The findings highlighted in this study offer valuable guidance to facilitate appropriate patient selection and thereby ensuring favorable perioperative outcomes associated with RPN procedures.</p>","PeriodicalId":15723,"journal":{"name":"Journal of endourology","volume":" ","pages":"252-260"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143255789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
