Popis: | INTRODUCTION: Minimally-invasive surgery (MIS) has been adopted slowly in pediatric oncology. We attempted to describe contemporary national trends in MIS use; we hypothesized that adolescents (who are more likely to have relatively small renal cell carcinomas) would have a higher proportion of MIS than younger children (who are more likely to have relatively large Wilms tumors) and that this relationship would vary by region. OBJECTIVE: To explore whether pediatric urologic oncology outcomes vary by patient age or by surgical technique. METHODS: We queried the 1998–2014 National Inpatient Sample (NIS) and included encounters in children aged 10 y) or surgery type; Wald-Chi square test was used for differences in proportions and unadjusted weighted ANOVA was used to test for differences in means. RESULTS: 9,259 weighted encounters were included; 91% were 9y, p |
