Our aim is to compare the in-patient cost of patients undergoing nephron-sparing surgeries for renal masses at our institution. We compared computerized tomography-guided radiofrequency ablation (CT- RFA), laparoscopic-guided radiofrequency ablation (L-RFA), laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN), open partial nephrectomy (OPN), and robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RA-LPN) as treatments for a renal mass. METHODS From our prospective database we identified the last ten patients undergoing the included procedures: CT-RFA, L-RFA, LPN, OPN, RA-LPN. All procedures took place over a seven year time frame (2002-2009). Patients were matched for tumor size (T1a). Procedures took place in one institution. Data collected for patient parameters included age, co-morbidities, tumor stage, and pathology, as well as cost of laboratory investigations, imaging studies, room and board, operating rooms, disposable equipment, pharmacy, anesthesia service, post-anesthesia care, and transfusion (in-hospital cost). Professional fees for the urologist, anesthesiologist, radiologist, and pathologist were calculated based on Medicare values for uniformity. Total cost for technical approach (including in-patient cost and professional fees) was calculated. Operative time was recorded from patient entry to patient exit from the operating room. RESULTS Table 1 shows the results comparing all five groups. All patients had pathologically confirmed renal cell carcinoma. The operative costs of the five approaches varied according to the different in-patient, professional, and total costs (Figure 1). RA-LPN proved to be associated with the highest total cost ($15,444), followed by LPN (14,380). OPN was intermediate in cost ($10,000). CT-RFA was the most economic approach ($5,643) followed by LRFA ($8,828). CT-RFA also had the lowest in-patient cost. TABLE 1.

CT-RFA proved to be the most economic approach followed by LRFA. These procedures were not only noted not only to be the most economical, but also to have the lowest associated in-patient cost.
