Challenges of laparoscopic radical nephrectomy at the upper limits of obesity
As worldwide obesity rates increase the number of patients with an elevated BMI requiring urological surgery will increase. Although obesity has previously been considered a relative contra-indication to laparoscopic surgery, here we present a case of successful laparoscopic nephrectomy performed due to renal cancer in a patient with a BMI >60 kg/m2 together with a review of the associated challenges.
