Authors' objectives:
Can laparoscopic renal surgery improve the post-operative recovery without being inferior to the established open surgical technique concerning total or cancer specific survival, radicality and complications?
Authors' recommendations:
There is low level of evidence to evaluate if laparoscopic surgery for kidney neoplasm is as effective as open surgery concerning the most important outcome tumour-free survival. Laparoscopic resection may be inferior to open surgery concerning radicality, but the statistical significance is on the border. Complications are more frequent after laparoscopy and the cost for surgery is somewhat higher.
