Abstract
Variability in blood supply, the renal isthmus, and abnormal kidney location are unique features that contribute to making a laparoscopic approach for heminephrectomy in a horseshoe kidney technically challenging. We report three cases of laparoscopic heminephrectomy for benign disease in horseshoe kidneys using bipolar energy for transection of the isthmus.Entities:
